Residents were looking for ways to be more sustainable while continuing the traditional economic activities of the region, such as logging and fishing. We came together to find solutions towards a better future for our ecosystem and our communities. In January 2000, Clayoquot Sound was designated a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. This recognition celebrates the unique ecosystems of Clayoquot Sound and the people who work so hard to encourage a respectful and sustainable relationship with our environment.Through education, research and celebration, we are providing the tools necessary to build a better future for Clayoquot Sound.
