Spring 2021
This year's Capstone project had student teams working in collaboration with the City of Vancouver Green Infrastructure Implementation to assess and communicate the co-benefits of green infrastructure to the environment and the community surrounding the St George Rainway. The scope of the project included two parts: the development of a data collection, analysis, and monitoring plan that could be used to assess the environmental and community co-benefits of green infrastructure, and the development of a resource for ongoing public engagement and education. Student teams took on one of these aspects of the project.
