Description

This report summarizes the socio-cultural studies completed during the Ecosystem Services Approach Pilot on Wetlands, which was part of Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development's 10-year ES Roadmap. The report describes the steps and results of three socio-cultural work tasks which explore different aspects of how people assign value, otherwise referred to as importance, to different features of wetlands and the services and benefits they provide. Additionally, a description is provided on how the categories of socio-cultural services were identified.
