Plan Us, a corridor for diversity


The Plan Nous, or Plan Us in English, is a twinning program between communities in northern and southern Quebec, which allows selected ambassadors to showcase the biodiversity specific to each of their territories through a competition.






Human corridors for diversity

Northern and southern Quebec, two territories separated by thousands of kilometers with unique realities, are opening up to an unprecedented meeting thanks to the Plan Us.

Conceived by SNAP Quebec, the Plan Us is a twinning program that allows ambassadors to bridge the distance between them each year to discover each other's culture: landscapes, traditions, fauna, flora, and the challenges they face.

Indeed, the Plan Us aims to build connections and create human corridors through the meeting of representatives from communities located at opposite ends of the Quebec territory.

This unique project aims to showcase the richness of our landscapes and promote the biocultural diversity of Quebec.

Through these exchanges, bonds are formed, stories are shared, and two realities meet. Ambassadors from the south discover the cultural richness and deep connection to the land of northern communities. Similarly, those from the north explore the nuances of the south, learn about its challenges, and discover the diversity of its heritage.

The Plan Us invites us to try to connect to one another for a new mutual understanding of the issues related to land conservation.

These encounters transcend geographical distances, awakening a collective awareness of the need to preserve our lands. Ambassadors, imbued with the teachings of the other, become dedicated guardians, advocates for culture, and protectors of the territory.

Their mission is to share their experiences and new knowledge with their communities, notably through conferences.
