Nation Rebuilding Program: selected projects 2020 to 2021
On this page
The Nation Rebuilding Program funded 48 projects and multi-year phases in the 2020 to 2021 fiscal year. The total funding allocated was more than $19 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 the rebuilding of Indigenous nations, and restoration of historic relationships and ties between Indigenous communities 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 that will facilitate self-determination and eventual self-governance
- developing a common vision, plans and strategies
- communications to increase awareness and unity within Indigenous nations
