Building Resilient Rural Communities was created for students, teachers, academics, and advocates seeking action in the face of climate change and ecosystem disruption. Our goal is to outline the realities of climate change in rural Canada, specifically related to community health and health service delivery. However, more importantly, the learning hub hopes to pave the way forward and inject a sense of optimism into the discourse around climate change. To cultivate an interactive learning hub, we have interwoven a collection of three key elements: 1) scholarly writing, 2) a fictional narrative, and 3) video interviews from a number of contributors that aims to engage readers through different mediums. We are committed to supporting the evolution of this learning hub as a growing resource that is receptive to readers by providing opportunities to submit comments, reflections, suggestions, and contributions to the work. Through our project, we hope to inspire our audience to engage in climate adaptation and resilience in their own ways.
