First Nations Guardians
Funding for First Nations Guardians initiatives supports First Nations peoples to exercise their rights and responsibilities to the lands, waters, and ice of their traditional territories through on-the-ground, community-based stewardship initiatives.
Governance
The First Nations National Guardians Network is a national non-profit that is designed and managed by First Nations individuals, and centers on First Nations knowledge, values, and perspectives.
