Book Aboriginal Communities and Non renewable Resource Development

Download or read book Aboriginal Communities and Non renewable Resource Development written by National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy (Canada) and published by Spotlight Poets. This book was released on 2001 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This examination of non-renewable resource development & the sustainability of Aboriginal communities draws on the experience of Aboriginal people, governments, resource developers, and other key players. The Northwest Territories was selected as the focus of the study since it illustrates particularly well a set of complex issues that affect Aboriginal communities across Canada. The introduction reviews the opportunity offered by non-renewable resource development and the environmental, cultural, social, and political context in which such development is occurring. Section 2 outlines a vision for achieving sustainable Aboriginal communities over the next 10-25 years. Section 3 summarizes the profound political changes under way in the Territories and section 4 presents recommendations to ensure that the cumulative effects of past, present, & future development are properly managed. Section 5 turns to specific recommendations directed at improving the climate for investment & economic development in the Territories. Section 6 presents recommendations on capacity building and section 7 addresses the importance of consultation with Aboriginal people, proposing two measures to support Aboriginal involvement in consultation processes. The focus in section 8 shifts to recommendations intended to promote economic diversification and ensure that Aboriginal communities receive long-term benefits from non-renewable resource development. Section 9 reviews the debate about the free-entry system for mining in the Territories. Brief concluding comments are presented in section 10. Appendices include a list of background papers and a review of important complementary initiatives related to Aboriginal communities and non-renewable resource development.

Book Resources and Sustainable Development in the Arctic

Download or read book Resources and Sustainable Development in the Arctic written by Chris Southcott and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-04 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past thirty years we have witnessed a demand for resources such as minerals, oil, and gas, which is only set to increase. This book examines the relationship between Arctic communities and extractive resource development. With insights from leading thinkers in the field, the book examines this relationship to better understand what, if anything, can be done in order for the development of non-renewable resources to be of benefit to the long-term sustainability of these communities. The contributions synthesize circumpolar research on the topic of resource extraction in the Arctic, and highlight areas that need further investigation, such as the ability of northern communities to properly use current regulatory processes, fiscal arrangements, and benefit agreements to ensure the long-term sustainability of their culture communities and to avoid a new path dependency This book provides an insightful summary of issues surrounding resource extraction in the Arctic, and will be essential reading for anyone interested in environmental impact assessments, globalization and Indigenous communities, and the future of the Arctic region.

Book Extractive Industry and the Sustainability of Canada s Arctic Communities

Download or read book Extractive Industry and the Sustainability of Canada s Arctic Communities written by Chris Southcott and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern treaties, increased self-government, new environmental assessment rules, co-management bodies, and increased recognition and respect of Indigenous rights make it possible for northern communities to exert some control over extractive industries. Whether these industries can increase the well-being and sustainability of Canada’s Arctic communities, however, is still open to question. Extractive Industry and the Sustainability of Canada’s Arctic Communities delves into the final research findings of the Resources and Sustainable Development in the Arctic project which attempted to determine what was required for extractive industry to benefit northern communities. Drawing on case studies, this book explores how northern communities can capture and distribute a fairer share of financial benefits, how they can use extractive activities for business development, the problems and possibilities of employment and training opportunities, and the impacts on gender relations. It also considers fly-in fly-out work patterns, subsistence activities, housing, post-mine clean-up activities, waste management, and ways of monitoring positive and negative impacts. While extractive industries could potentially help improve the sustainability of Canada’s Arctic, many issues stand in the way, most notably power imbalances that limit the ability of Indigenous Peoples to equitably participate in their governance. Extractive Industry and the Sustainability of Canada’s Arctic Communities emphasizes the general need to determine how new institutions and processes, which are largely imported from the south, can be adapted to allow for a more authentic participation from the Indigenous Peoples of Canada’s Arctic.
