South East Alberta Watershed Alliance
We work with partners across southeast Alberta to share information about rivers, wetlands, prairie lakes and reservoirs. We design and carry out applied research, help answer local water questions, support stewardship activities, and contribute our findings to broader planning work.
Acknowledgement
SEAWA recognizes that our work occurs within the territories of Treaty 4 and Treaty 7, with staff also joining from Treaty 6, and on the homeland of the Métis. We acknowledge the long history of Indigenous Nations whose knowledge systems, stewardship practices, and relationships with these lands continue to guide responsible care of water and ecosystems. This history shapes how we approach watershed planning, informed by Indigenous science and the responsibility to maintain these landscapes for future generations. We honour these communities by committing to respectful collaboration and ongoing learning in our stewardship and watershed work.
We’re currently rebuilding our website to better reflect who we are and how we work.
The new site will be clearer, faster, and designed to make it easier to find what you’re looking for.
Thanks for your patience while we put the finishing touches in place.
Behind the scenes, we’re refining our content, improving performance, and creating a more intentional experience from the ground up.
