Ms. Que BanhUpcoming #lecture talk at #UVIC.
From #Forests Frayed to Forests Renewed.
April 16, 2026.
Join us April 16, 2026 at the University of Victoria for a thought-provoking talk with keynote speaker Ben Parfitt as he explores, Forests Frayed to Forests Renewed: The Case for Rezoning BC’s Public Lands.
Ben has covered #forestry and natural resource issues in #BritishColumbia since the 1980s both as a journalist and in his previous role as senior public policy analyst with the now-closed Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, BC Office. He is currently a reporter with The Tyee where he covers the forestry and oil and gas industries, among others, and their impacts on critical natural resources like water.
In his talk, Ben will explain the consequences of today’s outdated land use policies and outline how rezoning BC’s public lands can set us on a more desirable course by conserving at-risk primary forests, restore lands scarred by industrialization and support jobs in a refocused, value-oriented forest industry.
Whether you’re an activist, policy maker or someone passionate about environmental preservation this is a talk you won’t want to miss.

Agroforestry
"Combining trees with crops or livestock is more productive, better for wildlife and healthier for the planet, but only 3% of the UK’s farmland currently practices agroforestry."

Agroforestry | Soil Association
What Is Agroforestry? Agroforestry describes farming systems that combine trees and shrubs with agricultural crops or livestock. Agroforestry can be designed in a way that avoids potential trade-offs between food production and other public goods that occur in many modern farming systems.
