The Innu nation of Essipit demonstrated its leadership earlier this year by announcing its ambitious protected area and connected habitats project, Essipiunnu-meshkanau. This announcement is part of a vast initiative undertaken by the nation to better protect and manage its Nitassinan (ancestral territory), in order to restore and conserve quality habitats for local species and ultimately maintain the innu-aitun (traditional activities and knowledge of the Essipiunnuat).

The Demain la forêt - infrastructures vertes project, launched by Jour de la Terre and supported by the Quebec government, aims to develop uncultivated agricultural areas where the slopes are too steep for cultivation.

We have developed a strategy for planting the 500,000 new trees that will maximize the sustainability of the urban forest while improving the distribution of nature in the city.

Our analysis of the Rosemère urban forest (portrait, ecosystem services, functional diversity) has allowed us to develop planting recommendations that will meet conservation objectives.

Our team evaluated the role of trees in Parc Jean-Drapeau in sequestering carbon, improving air quality and avoiding stormwater runoff.

In 2021, Nature-Action Québec commissioned Habitat to carry out an assessment of the urban forest of the City of Candiac with a view to improving its resilience in the face of global change.
