NWT PFP: Taking Care of the Land and People
Working Group Resources
A PFP in the Northwest Territories could create long-term support for Indigenous-led conservation and sustainable growth across the region.
Representatives from Indigenous, Territorial, and Federal Governments and private investors are exploring an innovative partnership to create long-term support for Indigenous-led conservation and sustainable growth in the Northwest Territories.
The partnership would be centered around a financing tool called Project Finance for Permanence. PFPs lead to comprehensive funding agreements designed to sustain healthy lands and local economies.
The Northwest Territories is an excellent candidate for the PFP model, given its global leadership in Indigenous conservation, strong governance, and enabling legislation.

Elders, Youth & the Land
“Land, language, and culture are at the center.” A day in the life of K'asho Got'ine Guardians might include monitoring water quality, mapping trails, or tanning moose hide – but whatever the project, the work is rooted in the knowledge of the Elders and a love of culture. Learn how this is helping Guardians care for the Ts’udé Nilįné Tuyeta Indigenous Protected Area and building stronger communities in the NWT.
