Biosphere

Since 2013, the MUWBR has been leading the management committee comprising a host of stakeholders with a close connection to this protected area in the Uapishka (Groulx) Mountains sector.

The RMBMU has a purpose to foster the acquisition and sharing of knowledge on its designated territory, by contributing to the development of scientific research and supporting research teams during their projects.

This program involves several projects carried out to acquire knowledge, build capacity and design evidence-based decision-support tools within the Uapishka biodiversity reserve.

This project is part of ongoing efforts expended by every Canadian biosphere reserve to contribute to the goal of protecting 30% of their territories by 2030.

As part of the Ministère du Tourisme's Action Plan for Responsible and Sustainable Tourism 2020-2025, the MUWBR is leading an outreach project to document and showcase the best tourism practices suited for the northern experience.

This 5-km interpretive trail project brings out the Innu culture and scientific research conducted at the Uapishka Station.

In this podcast, the voices of Pessamit Innu elders guide visitors along the Manicouagan River and the Nitassinan.

Every year, two to three young people from Manicouagan take part in a scientific expedition focusing on climate change in the Arctic.
