Mira Oberman

CPAWS Manitoba's Director of Communications and Public Programs

Mira Oberman was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba where she developed a love of hiking, canoeing, skiing, and stargazing in the Boreal.

Audubon is proud to partner with The Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS). CPAWS is Canada’s only nationwide charity dedicated solely to the protection of our public land, ocean, and freshwater, and ensuring our parks and protected areas are managed to protect nature. We have played a leading role in protecting over half a million square kilometres since 1963. Our vision is to protect at least half of Canada’s public land and water in a framework of reconciliation — for the benefit of wildlife and people. 

CPAWS Manitoba has been instrumental in establishing 22 new parks and protected areas in our province. That’s an area larger than Lake Winnipeg at nearly 26,000 square kilometres.
