Who We Are

The NWT On The Land Collaborative (the Collaborative) was created in 2015 to promote and support on the land initiatives in the Northwest Territories. The Collaborative brings together government, charitable, corporate, and other partners to combine efforts and make it easier for communities to access money and other resources for on the land projects.
 
The Collaborative is comprised of Community Advisors, Funding Partners, and an Administrative Team.
 
Community Advisors are appointed by regional Indigenous governments to serve as representatives for the Collaborative in their region. They provide on-the-ground support to projects throughout the application process, while also assisting in the selection of recipients. One of the priorities of the Collaborative is to reflect local priorities and ways of working. From the beginning, community representatives have been at the table, articulating the need for a collaborative approach to funding, but also what that approach should look like. Meet the Community Advisors on our Contact page. 
 
The participating regional Indigenous governments are: 
  • Inuvialuit Regional Corporation
  • Gwich’in Tribal Council
  • Tłı̨chǫ Government
  • Dehcho First Nations
  • NWT Métis Nation
  • Akaitcho Territory Government
  • Sahtú Secretariat Incorporated
 
Funding Partners provide both monetary and in-kind support to successful applicants. They include governments, philanthropic organizations, industry, and non-profits. Each Funding Partner appoints a representative to attend meetings and be their voice at the table. Meet the representatives here.
 
The current Funding Partners are:
  • Government of the Northwest Territories
  • MakeWay
  • NWT Recreation and Parks Association
  • Nature United
  • McConnell Foundation
  • Rio Tinto Diavik Diamond Mine
  • The Gordon Foundation ​
  • Royal Bank of Canada

​The Administrative Team includes representatives from: GNWT Departments of Health and Social Services and Environment and Natural Resources; MakeWay; and the NWT Recreation and Parks Association. The Administrative Team oversees the management of the Collaborative’s internal processes; communication with grant recipients; partner engagement; and communications.
