Indigenous Capacity Support Program

Under this Program, funding is available to assist in supporting community understanding of environmental assessment and impact assessment (EA/IA) processes and related issues in order to meaningfully participate in EA/IAs and in EA/IA related engagement.

• To provide financial support outside of project-specific funding to support the development of internal capacity in Indigenous communities and Indigenous umbrella organizations (such as tribal councils or treaty organizations) related to participation in environmental assessments and impact assessment, regional/strategic assessments and environmental assessment or impact assessment monitoring and follow-up programs. This can be achieved, for example, through relationship building, networking, customized training in community engagement and land use documentation and planning, partnering, regional support to local groups as required, train-the-trainer type programs, and work exchanges.
