Aquatic Species At Risk - Gulf Region
Ingenium is working with the DFO to create and share education materials and events to further public engagement in protecting aquatic species at risk in Canada.
Bedford Institute of Oceanography Gully Room and Murry Building
BIO is a modern oceanographic research facility, established in 1962 by the Federal Government of Canada (the former Department of Mines and Technical Surveys, now Natural Resources Canada) and is located on the shores of the Bedford Basin in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. Over the last 50 years it has grown to become Canada's largest centre for ocean research. Ingenium and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans are developing interpretive content for the Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO) Conservation Room.
Canadian Automobile Association
Ingenium has partnered with the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA) to bring visitors savings on individual tickets and memberships at its three museums. This is the first partnership between CAA and another museum in North and East Ontario. Through this collaboration, Ingenium and CAA are giving greater access to Canada’s national cultural institutions.
CAA Members across Canada receive a 25% discount on individual tickets and 10% discount towards an annual membership, valid at each of the three museums. Conditions apply.
Capilano River Hatchery
Completed in 1971, the Capilano River Hatchery was built to strengthen declining Capilano salmon stocks that were affected by the construction of the Cleveland Dam. Today, the hatchery receives 238,000 visitors annually and is widely recognized for its contribution of coho and steelhead to the sport fishery in Burrard Inlet. Ingenium is coordinating with the First Nations and DFO to rebuild all the visitor experiences on-site.
Discovery Centre
- Natural Resources Canada/ Geological survey of Canada
The scope of the Discovery Centre is to include terrestrial as well as marine exhibits that showcase the breadth of the Geological Survey of Canada’s research and program activities. Though situated in Vancouver, the Discovery Centre will be inclusive of the rest of Canada as this is to illustrate our national presence while paying homage to First Nations and Indigenous Communities.
Fisheries and Oceans Canada Pacific Region - Science
Ingenium is working to communicate current and historical marine aquatic science to staff and visitors at Pacific Biological Station, Institute of Ocean Science and Cultus Lake Laboratories.
GenAction
GenAction unites 30 science centres across the nation to deliver climate action programming inspiring our next generation of climate heroes. Its mission is to engage over 200,000 youth by 2024.
Ingenium Innovation Challenge 2024
Ingenium’s 2024 Innovation Challenge will be bringing together young adults early in their career aged 18-35 to build a digital prototype to help inspire positive solutions to mitigate the disparities many face around clean water and sanitation – in Canada, and globally. The product should be designed to enable young Canadians aged 9-12 (grades 4-7) to better understand how their actions affect wastewater systems, and help them find ways to contribute to sustainable water and sanitation habits, leading to positive action.
Online learning resources
- IDÉLLO
The partnership between Groupe Média TFO and Ingenium aims to advance their educational mandates and make available to teachers, parents, and students quality learning resources in French such as the content developed by Ingenium via the IDÉLLO platform.
Science Enterprise Centres
The Science Enterprise Centres house a suite of academic, government and other science practitioners in a collaborative environment designed to drive joint research work, incorporate traditional Indigenous knowledge, and leverage the resources of multiple partners around shared goals and needs. Ingenium is coordinating displays and educational programming for the science enterprise centres on each of Canada's coasts. | Les Centres d'entreprises scientifiques accueillent différents praticiens scientifiques venant des universités, du gouvernement et autres, dans un espace de collaboration en vue de faciliter des travaux de recherche conjoints, d’incorporer les connaissances traditionnelles des peuples autochtones et de tirer parti des ressources de ces différents partenaires pour atteindre des objectifs communs et répondre à des besoins semblables. Ingenium coordonne les expositions et les programmes éducatifs pour les centres d'entreprises scientifiques sur chacune des côtes du Canada.
Snootli Creek Hatchery
Completed in 1978, the Snootli Creek Hatchery’s mission is to rehabilitate the chum population in the Bella Coola River and its tributaries. The hatchery produces a number of salmonid species with adult salmon return numbers ranging from 360,000 to 2,160,000 depending on species, stock, release strategy and environmental factors. Ingenium is working with DFO to redo the visitor centre for the hatchery.
STEM the Gap Academy
- STEM the Gap Academy
STEM the Gap Academy is tackling the gender gap in chess head-on by inspiring its students to discover and develop their inherent strengths. The partnership is aimed to encourage girls, regardless of their background, location, physical, cognitive and financial abilities, to see themselves confidently in STEM via this unique learning experience.
The initiatives include a Fellowship opportunity in Gender, Science and Technology with the University of Ottawa, a travelling display that will relay more in-depth stories such as the ones featured in our posters, and specialised programming and events.
