Students in the Faculty of Forestry are no strangers to producing engaging content surrounding natural resources management — the medium is changing though.

Janette Bulkan, Assistant Professor for Indigenous Studies in the Faculty of Forestry, is initiating student-led projects on the UBC Wiki, an open-source platform, to facilitate students as producers of knowledge. What started as a pilot project for graduate students in 2016 has now expanded to three of Bulkan’s courses.
