ECW is a not for profit environmental resource centre working with groups and organizations as a catalyst in assisting to improve community well-being without degrading environmental health, by guiding the adoption of integrative frameworks that bring together social, economic, and environmental concerns.

We assist industry and government in understanding how good environmental conditions will support healthy communities and quality of life in an equitable way for all citizens of a region. ECW assists communities in a bottom-up approach to build an environment that provides good jobs and living spaces for all.
