First Things First Okanagan

The mission of First Things First Okanagan is to promote awareness of climate change and work to find solutions for a better future. 

We acknowledge that we live on the unceded traditional territory of the Syilx Okanagan Nation and value Indigenous ecological knowledge and worldviews.

We are named First Things First Okanagan because above all, we value preserving life on this planet through a respectful relationship with the natural world.

We have a responsibility to find local climate solutions that promote social and economic justice and stewardship of the environment.

We seek to advance climate action by working in a productive, cooperative and non-partisan manner.
