The First Nations Forestry Council will be hosting five events in the province, with one in Quesnel.
The sessions are to ensure more workers, communities and First Nations are prospering in the forestry sector, and to develop solutions to sustain, diversify and grow BC’s value-added sector.
In an email response, the Ministry of Forest said as partners in the Value-Added Accelerators, the initiative will look to bring together wood manufacturers, First Nations, forest licensees and the Province to address challenges and find ways to keep more fibre.
The session will also provide an opportunity for local First Nations to learn more about the high value wood manufacturing sector through better information-sharing, tools, resources and networking.
The information sessions in Quesnel will be on May 1st from 4:30 to 6:30.
