Funded by the University of Manitoba’s Advance Open Ed initiative, this open education resource (OER) will be a wide-ranging, visually rich collection of material that puts water in the centre of human and more-than-human life. In June 2025, a workshop led by The Environmental Storytelling Studio supported contributors in increasing the appeal and accessibility of their writing.
