Sarah Desrosiers

Territorial Stewardship Manager, Citxw Nlaka'pamux Assembly

Sarah is grateful to be living in the nłeʔkepmx territory for the past ten years. Sarah is a Professional Agrologist and has a MSc from the University of British Columbia. She believes that to make sound decisions, Indigenous knowledge and western science must be woven with care and according to the needs of communities involved. Sarah has worked with First Nations, the Province of British Columbia, and in academic research settings that contributed to the development of tools and processes that bridge the two ways of knowing to support developing meaningful relationships through environmental management, regulatory engagement, and impact assessment. She owns and operates Coquihalla Apiaries with her husband. Sarah enjoys beekeeping not only because she and her family eat copious amounts of honey, but it brings her closer to and makes her a better steward of the land.
