Resource Works, launched in April 2014, brings British Columbians together for a respectful, fact-based dialogue on responsible resource development in the province and the connected nature of our urban and rural economies. As an initiative spurred out of the BC Agenda for Shared Prosperity (BCASP) project, Resource Works seeks to highlight how natural resources contribute to achieving the common economic and social prosperity goals British Columbians share. In one short year the organization has gained national acclaim as a respected and leading instigator of information, dialogue and awareness building among the broad population and thought leaders alike.
