Recreation Sharing Tour

Hosted by Recreation Nova Scotia and the Nova Scotia Provincial Government, the project's aim is to improve access and inclusion in recreation across Nova Scotia for those who face barriers to participation (First Nations communities, people with disabilities, new Canadians, older adults, women and girls, African Nova Scotians, etc.) by connecting practitioners working in recreation across the province, understanding what they are working on and where they need support, and creating a springboard for systems change.
