CBWN was established by the Columbia Basin Trust in 2005 with sponsorship of a Watershed Symposium at Selkirk College.

In 2012 Columbia Basin Trust requested the CBWN re-focus and become more independent.  From 2012 to March 31, 2016 Mainstreams administered the CBWN.  They are now an independent BC Society.  Check them out at www.cbwn.ca

The CBWN Steering Committee charted a strategic plan, which was put in place in 2013 with the ring of a part-time coordinator.  To read the current strategic plan, please go to the Network website: http:// www.cbwn.ca
