Description:
The 36-month project is to address the institutional, economic and social barriers that affect the Indigenous women of Wemotaci (Nikawi), Ekuanitshit and Unamen Shipu. It will mobilize local Indigenous women to foster partnerships and develop a local strategy to use available non-timber forest resources, market them and distribute them through a professional farm supply network. The project would expand community understanding by ensuring band councils recognize the importance of harvest and traditional practices for Indigenous women’s economic empowerment and land management.
