CCBAC believes it is essential to bring together natural resource managers and economic development expertise to minimize the potential economic impacts of the beetle epidemic, and to make the best of the ensuing opportunities.
As part of its enabling function, CCBAC will provide financial assistance to those initiatives that are consistent with CCBAC’s 2016-17 priority areas for economic development in the Cariboo Chilcotin Region. Financial assistance will take the form of seed funding and/or funds for feasibility studies, marketing, and communications initiatives and economic development studies to support economic development or diversification initiatives.
