Indigenous communities across Canada are experiencing the impacts of climate change from events such as wildfires, heat waves, floods, and shortened winter road seasons in the North. Shared Value Solutions and Morrison Hershfield partnered up to present an overview of the solutions that Indigenous Communities can develop to become more resilient to the impacts of climate change and extreme weather.

The webinar explored the funding application process for a program currently open in Alberta with eligible grants for Indigenous communities and an overview of the climate-risk assessment and climate adaptation planning processes.
