Nation Rebuilding Program: selected projects 2019 to 2020
The program funded 48 projects in the 2019 to 2020 fiscal year across the country. The total funding allocated was almost $20 million.
Proposals were assessed using the terms and conditions and eligibility criteria for the program and those judged to best fit the objectives of the program were approved for funding.
The selected projects supported nation rebuilding efforts contributing to aggregation to increase capacity at the larger nation level through various activities such as:
- consultation, engagement and information sharing for communities to share ideas and collaborate on issues, priorities and approaches
- self-government learning and skills development
- developing or strengthening nation level self-determination structures and processes to take on greater sectoral responsibilities
- developing a common vision, plans and strategies
- Communications to increase awareness and unity within Indigenous nations
