Through this project NCC will offer technical, financial, and logistical support to secure Indigenous Protected Conservation Areas (IPCAs) in Alberta. The Métis Nation of Alberta (MNA) has developed a land securement and stewardship strategy in consultation with their Citizens and are exploring opportunities. NCC will share data and logistical capacity in support of MNA’s conservation plans, accelerating the rate of conservation. NCC is eager to support the formation of IPCAs and other Indigenous-led conservation projects. To meet this challenge NCC will also undertake the necessary fundamental changes to their operations to ensure projects and activities are aligned with reconciliation and build out their capacity to do this work.
