The conference was a Manitoba Education for Sustainable Development Working Group (MESDWG) project, with assistance and support from a broad array of community partners and sponsors. Sustainable development (SD) is a difficult concept because it requires systems thinking and the integration of con- siderations about economic, environmental and social factors. The most commonly accepted definition of sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.There have been many challenges to broadly incorporate SD standards into the formulation of government policies, business practices and individual behaviours. To achieve the necessary changes, it was recognized by the United Nations (UN) and member governments that an effective strategy for delivering ESD at all levels of soci- ety was needed. The Decade of Education for Sustainable Development was initiated in 2005 to establish this as a pri- ority for the planet. UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization), the lead organization for the Decade, stated that ESD is a process of learning how to make decisions that consider the long-term future of the economy, ecology and equity of all communities; a key task for education is building this capacity. The MESDWG was estab- lished in 2005 to advance the objectives of the Decade in Manitoba. The MESDWG took on the role of providing a focal point for stakeholders from business, government, academia and the not-for-profit sector, to work together to create a culture of ESD in Manitoba. Representatives of the MESDWG, as well as those from other provincial and territorial working groups, sit on the National Education for Sustainable Development Expert Council (NESDEC). NESDEC is Canada’s ESD umbrella group, with funding provided by Environment Canada, and Learning for a Sustainable Future (LSF) acting as secretariat. The “Choose the Future” conference was a priority of the MESDWG for several reasons. First, it provided an oppor- tunity to introduce educators from the formal school system, as well as educators from all other sectors, to sustain- able development (SD) and the importance of including SD as a central education theme for Manitobans. To further this goal, the Science Teachers Association of Manitoba (STAM) was enlisted as a partner in organizing the confer- ence, and the dates for the conference were selected to coincide with an established province-wide professional devel- opment opportunity for all teachers. Second, the Working Group wanted to establish a benchmark for ESD in Manitoba so that progress in establishing ESD as a provincial priority could be measured over the remainder of the Decade and beyond. Finally we wanted to have the conference act as a showcase for the many innovative ESD proj- ects and programs contemplated or already taking place. The proceedings for “Choose the Future” were prepared by IISD, the International Institute for Sustainable Development. Sincere thanks to Robin Gislason, Carolee Buckler and Heather Creech of IISD for leading this project, as well as the talented team of university students they recruited to act as conference rapporteurs. The proceedings will act as a valuable legacy of the conference. It, along with the abstracts and PowerPoint presenta- tions for the concurrent session speakers, will be housed on the MESDWG Web site at www.mesdwg.ca. Those in Manitoba and beyond, who may organize future ESD conferences, and those wishing to review the “state of the art” of ESD will find these resources useful. Richard A. Wishart Ph.D. Chair, MESDWG Winnipeg, Manitoba Documents related to the event can be found at www.mesdwg.ca/events_hom.html Choose the Future – Education for Sustainable Development – Conference Report iv November 26–28, 2008, Winnipeg, Canada Executive Summary The “Choose the Future: Education for Sustainable Development Conference” was held in Winnipeg, Canada, November 26–28, 2008. This international conference was planned for everyone who understands that education is required to sustain our future. “Choose the Future” stands as a major contribution to Canadian activities supporting the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005–2014). This was a unique forum on the knowledge and actions needed to achieve economic goals, just social systems and a healthy environment. The conference was designed for several audiences: first, for educators who wished to embed the principles and practices of sustainable development in their teaching and program planning; and second, for leaders in business, NGOs and government who wished to engage their employees and stakeholders in sustainable practices and operations. On the evening of November 26, polar explorer Lonnie Dupre set the stage for the conference with his video presen- tation on Arctic Change at the Imax Theatre. The Hon. Lloyd Axworthy, president

  • PECS Definitions and Guidelines
    DEFINITIONS AND GUIDELINES The Polar Expeditions Classification Scheme is a grading system for extended, unmotorised polar expeditions, crossings or circumnavigations, collectively referred to as Journeys. Polar regions, modes of travel, start and end points, routes and types of support are defined under the scheme and give expeditioners guidance on how to classify, promote and immortalise their journey. PECS uses three tiers of Designation to grade, label and describe polar journeys - a Label (made up of Label Elements), a Description and a MAP Code. Tiers are only an indication of information density. PECS does not discriminate between Modes of Travel. Each Mode is classified under the scheme allowing same-mode journeys to be compared while allowing for superficial cross-comparison. PECS is able to accommodate new modes of unmotorised travel as they develop without impacting on labelling or definitions. Journeys using engines or motors for propulsion, for any part of the journey, are not covered by PECS. PECS concentrates primarily on journeys of more than 400km in Antarctica, Greenland and on the Arctic Ocean however journeys in other polar areas and of less than 400km one-way linear distance that do not include the Poles or significant features on their line of travel may be classified on an informal basis under this scheme. Journeys choosing to use PECS must abide by PECS language and terminology. Last Degree or Last Two Degree expeditions do not fall under the scope of PECS. Some facets of polar travel such as usage of communications and engaging with audiences are too complex or nuanced to categorise.

  • Recent Developments Along the Assiniboine Corridor in Brandon
    Prairie Perspectives 199 Down by the riverside: recent developments along the Assiniboine Corridor in Brandon G. Lee Repko and John Everitt Brandon University Abstract: In the past few years, the previously neglected Assiniboine River corridor within the city of Brandon has shown signs of significant change and development. These changes have largely been the result of a realization, by both city officials and community members, that an important local recreational resource has been neglected or ignored by the majority of Brandon’s inhabitants for many years. A series of public meetings sponsored by the city led to the acceptance of a plan for the riverbank and the formation of a not-for-profit group to bring planned changes into reality. In the past three years, pre-existing developments have been brought under the auspices of Riverbank Inc. and a series of new initiatives have been started. This paper briefly describes the past and contemporary development of Brandon’s Assiniboine river corridor. Introduction The purpose of this paper is to outline and report upon the development of the Assiniboine River Corridor by “Riverbank Inc.” Riverbank Inc. is a non-profit “arms length” organisation incorporated by the Province of Manitoba in 1994. The aim of the organisation is to develop the tract of land along the banks of the Assiniboine River within the city of Brandon as a recreational area for the city and its region, and as a possible ecological focal point for tourist activity within southwest Manitoba (Figure 1). The ongoing transformation of the river valley has the potential to be one of the major changes to the face of Brandon since its incorporation in 1882.
