Impacts of industrial resource extraction activities on landscapes and ecosystems have generated increasing attention from scientists, land managers, government and the public in Canada and abroad. The decreasing useable terrestrial land base (approximately 50%) and the concurrent increasing human population on planet earth make reclamation of disturbed lands a highly essential area of training and development worldwide. Among the most pressing challenges of the 21st century will be reclamation to ensure the long term ecological and environmental sustainability of these lands and the socio-economic sustainability of the communities which depend upon them. Canada is in urgent need of highly trained, adaptable and innovative professionals with a solid grounding in the environmental sciences and with an understanding of associated socio-economic policy. CREATE funding will be used to support establishment of the Land Reclamation International Graduate School (LRIGS), with current international partners.

工业资源开采活动对景观和生态系统的影响越来越受到加拿大国内外科学家、土地管理者、政府和公众的关注。可利用陆地基地的减少（约50%）和地球上人口的同时增加，使受干扰土地的开垦成为全球培训和发展的一个非常重要的领域。世纪最紧迫的挑战之一是填海，以确保这些土地的长期生态和环境可持续性，以及依赖这些土地的社区的社会经济可持续性。加拿大迫切需要训练有素，适应性强和创新的专业人员，他们在环境科学方面有坚实的基础，并了解相关的社会经济政策。CREATE资金将用于支持与现有国际合作伙伴建立土地开垦国际研究生院（LRIGS）。
