Past Media Coverage

Project Partners

Monitoring the Moraine is a collaborative project between Citizens' Environment Watch (CEW), Save the Oak Ridges Moraine (STORM) Coalition, and Centre for Community Mapping (COMAP). Each partner brings different and complementary skills and experience to the project.

Citizens’ Environment Watch empowers people in Ontario to pay attention to their local environment. CEW provides education, equipment and support to monitor local ecosystem health, and opportunities to participate in informed community decision-making and active stewardship. CEW has experience working with volunteers who are keen to undertake community based environmental monitoring as part of their efforts to protect and restore the environmental integrity of the Oak Ridges Moraine.

Save The Oak Ridges Moraine Coalition (STORM) is focused on protecting the ecological integrity of the Oak Ridges Moraine. Since 1989, STORM has been working at the local and regional levels to ensure that municipalities make good planning decisions that respect the environmental significance of the moraine and that take into account its ecological and hydrological functions. STORM’s years of experience in policy and planning on the Oak Ridges Moraine and its well-developed network of local and regional contacts were critical to the campaign that saved (legislatively) the Oak Ridges Moraine.

The Centre for Community Mapping is an assembly of designers and researchers, whose goal is to provide accessible and affordable informatics tools and support to community-based organizations. COMAP’s main focus is to enable communities to communicate information through a sustainable, shared infrastructure, a common map platform for visual exploration and contribution of community information. The common map will have natural and cultural heritage applications, as well as land use management policy monitoring applications, serving communities that care for the Oak Ridges Moraine.
