Changing Course – A River’s Journey of Reconnection (2024) illustrates the importance of water management using the Columbia River as a historic example and how the current governance of the Columbia River has to change course to adapt to this future by becoming more connected with nature. The need for such changes is eloquently expressed by leading voices in both Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities in the Canadian Columbia Basin.
