BioBlitz!

Langara College's BioBlitz aims to engage students in citizen science, hands-on ecological learning, foster appreciation for biodiversity, inspire conservation action, and strengthen community partnerships for environmental stewardship.

As the first BioBlitz, Langara College will create a baseline of biodiversity for its main campus. This event will inform future monitoring and management practices through creating a baseline of biodiversity and improve knowledge involving various ecosystem services.
