Announcing New eBook: Indigenous Planning Starter Kit

SVS_eBookPostcard_PlanningKit_WEB_2019.09.10-1

 

We all know the value of a good plan in charting a course to the future we want to see. But for many Indigenous nations, the planning process often seems long, time consuming and ultimately ineffective: how many expensive plans end up forgotten on a shelf?

What if planning doesn’t have to be that way? What if planning is fun?

What if planning can bring a community together? Revitalize culture and spirit? Re-ignite pride and reclaim roles of environmental stewardship, jurisdiction and sovereignty, and accelerate economic development? What if planning is fun? From our work with First Nations, Métis and Inuit governments across Canada, we know that it absolutely can be a fun and rewarding experience for your whole community.

 

Over the past months, we've been exploring many facets of the planning process in our blog series (see below), and have gathered the most popular content into one nifty downloadable reference eBook. 

 

Whether you are a Land Code community, thinking about becoming a Land Code community or just looking to develop a vision for how you want your community to grow and change while protecting what matters, we hope that the information in this eBook will help make sure your planning processes meet the unique needs of your community. As always, please let us know what you think of this content and what you'd like us to explore next. Enjoy!
