Barry Wilson has focused his career on holistic cumulative effects for the past 24 years. Drawing upon over three decades of professional practice, Barry works closely with Indigenous communities and other governments to use two ways of knowing; Indigenous Knowledge and western contemporary science, in applying and teaching holistic cumulative effects assessment. He works with teams to bring clarity to complex conversations about the cumulative effects of multiple human land uses, natural disturbance, and climate change. Through this work Barry has led several precedent-setting Indigenous-led holistic cumulative effects assessments for major infrastructure projects in Canada.

Barry is the Founder of the RavenWater Learning Circleâ„Ē (RWLC) which is increasing the skills and self-sustaining capacity of organizations to lead holistic cumulative effects assessment, planning, monitoring and decision-making in their lands, waters, and communities.

Barry and his wife Karen are grateful for the privilege of living and operating CE Analytic’s head office within SecwepemcÚl’ecw, the unceded Traditional Territory of the SecwÃĐpemc Nation, where they raised their daughter and son in the city of Salmon Arm BC. Adding to his experience in western Canada, Barry’s work has taken him north to the Sahtu Region of the NWT, east to the Maritimes region of Mi’kma’ki, and south to the US pacific northwest. Barry is serving his third year on the Indigenous Center for Cumulative Effects Technical Advisory Committee and is co-founder and President of the registered Charity BC Tomorrow helping students learn about sustainability in their own watersheds.
