Connecting urban communities, rehabilitating natural spaces, increasing biodiversity with native plants and animals, and integrating all these elements. That's what University of Guelph-Humber Media & Communication Studies (MCS) instructor Elaine Chan-Dow is doing through Edgeland Collective - an arts, culture, and environmental group she founded with her friend, artist, and educator, Jessica Hein.
Chan-Dow is already making an impact on the community with Edgeland Collective. The group recently began embarking on a special project to rehabilitate a lost creek, known as the Dentonia Park Ravine. This was made possible by successfully securing a Climate Action Grant through the City of Toronto.
