We know that having as many people from your Indigenous nation engaged in your land use planning process as possible is a powerful way to ground the plan in your nation’s values, visions and priorities.

What motivates most planners is a deep desire to create spaces for people to live their lives with a sense of community, a sense of home.

Whether you are building a land use plan, a community energy plan or any other plan that creates a roadmap to a future you want for your nation, this is the basic question to be clear on if your planning process is going to be successful.

Gathering existing background information into one place is a great way to start any planning process.

Springtime is planning time! Do you hear that and groan?

From coast to coast to coast, Indigenous nations are leading the way for marine planning.

So you have this fantastic new land use plan that you’ve worked on for two years, and you’re so proud of the power it has given your Indigenous nation to assert jurisdiction and take control over your lands and your future.

Every spring, a growing number of Indigenous nations face the threat of surging meltwaters, and 2019 has been no different.
