A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome :
The State of the Basin is a Selkirk College Rural Development Institute initiative to monitor and report on information relating to well-being in the Columbia Basin-Boundary region. Every day, Basin-Boundary communities make decisions that influence our region’s development path. Local governments plan for future demand for services. Non-profit initiatives establish programs to serve the needs of local residents and the environment. Entrepreneurs determine where to locate their small business. In order to ensure these decisions are sound. The State of the Basin report provides research on economic, social, cultural and environmental conditions and trends. The primary goal of the State of the Basin project is to provide access to the data communities need to make decisions that lead to greater regional well-being.
