In their first phase, they've launched two groundbreaking initiatives: the Okanagan Catalyst Network, which is helping to restore sockeye salmon populations through an eco credit market, and an indigenous women-led Rematriation Fund.Their approach weaves together rights of nature, ecosystem service markets, and community-centered governance to demonstrate how bioregional finance can honor both people and place.
