Imagine what it would be like for your community to have a plan that manages its resources, tailored to your distinct values and needs. A Land Use Plan gives your Nation the power to do just that.
The National Aboriginal Lands Managers Association (NALMA) funding opportunity is a valuable resource for Indigenous communities seeking to strengthen their land management initiatives. The deadline for the funding is February 21, 2025.
We assist our clients with navigating the application process and securing funding. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions about your application- we'd love to chat! See below for more information on the fund and how to apply.

| Capacity Building and Training | Funding is available to support professional development for land managers, including courses, certifications, and workshops focused on governance, land use planning, and environmental management. |
