Listed below are a number of ongoing projects that Plenty Canada is either running or apart of. Feel free to browse through what Plenty is doing!
Landscape of Nations 360
Landscape of Nations is a project founded on the premises of remembering the indigenous warriors who fought in key battles during the War of 1812 alongside the British and Canadians. The project works to build on to the Covenant Chain of Friendship that still remains today. Landscape of Nations 360 will create, and host educational programs intended to convey and increase the meaning and messages of Landscape of Nations: The Six Nations & Native Allies Commemorative Memorial that was introduced October 2, 2016 in Queenston Heights Park, and other historic markers and sites within the Niagara Region.
Niagara Escarpment Biosphere Reserves - Cultural Based Mapping
Plenty Canada developed a working relationship with the Canadian Commission for United Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) last year to explore how best to engage and include Indigenous peoples in the organization and activation of Biosphere Reserves in Canada. Cultural Based Mapping is a project created by Plenty Canada and Niagara Escarpment Commission to introduce a “storytelling and mapping” project used to describe a variety of research methods, techniques, and tools applied to the identification, description, and portrayal of tangible and intangible cultural resources and assets, including those of distinct populations, within select landscapes around the world. The project will produce an interactive map of the Niagara Escarpment Biosphere Reserve layering upon the land appropriate knowledge, relationships, and histories of meaningful Indigenous locations to re-establish Indigenous experience and voice upon this ancient and special geological information.
