DUNCAN, British Columbia - TelAve -- Cowichan Valley's climate adaptation website has earned international recognition with a Gold Hermes Creative Award, spotlighting the region's innovative approach to helping residents prepare for climate change.

Developed by Nanaimo-based agency Array in partnership with the Cowichan Valley Regional District (CVRD), the award-winning microsite cowichanadapts.ca provides real-time tools for residents to track drought levels, water usage and restrictions, fire bans, and extreme weather risks. Residents can explore interactive maps, hazard banners, and downloadable guides to better understand and respond to changing conditions in the region.

"This site makes information about climate adaptation more accessible to our residents," said Jeff Moore, Manager of Environmental Services for the CVRD. "By working with a Vancouver Island firm, we were able to create something rooted in our community's needs while meeting international standards of innovation."
