Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aboriginal people in Canada have long struggled to regain control over their traditional forest lands. There have been significant gains in the quest for Aboriginal self-determination over the past few decades, including the historic signing of the Nisga’a Treaty in 1998. Aboriginal participation in resource management is on the rise in both British Columbia and other Canadian provinces, with some Aboriginal communities starting their own forestry companies.

This book discusses the need for professionals working in forestry and conservation to understand the context of Aboriginal participation in resource management. It also addresses the importance of considering traditional knowledge and traditional land use and examines the development of co-management initiatives and joint ventures between government, forestry companies, and native communities.

Book A Quantitative Assessment of Aboriginal Involvement in the Canadian Forest Industry

Download or read book A Quantitative Assessment of Aboriginal Involvement in the Canadian Forest Industry written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was also intended to help evaluate trends in the forest sector since the inception of the First Nations Forestry Program in 1996, as well as the release of the Report of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples the same year. [...] The following are the project's core objectives: 1) To describe the types of Aboriginal involvement in the Canadian forest industry; 2) To describe the trends of Aboriginal involvement in the number and types of initiatives; 3) To evaluate training and mentoring success; and, 4) To assess trends in education and employment levels attained by Aboriginal staff. [...] The next set of tables and figures present a snapshot of training and mentoring of Aboriginal employees and contractors in the forest sector. [...] The number of total employees across all sectors showed the same trend: the higher the level of seniority, the fewer the number of Aboriginal employees - although this is seen across other industries as well for many demographic groups. [...] We have appreciated the opportunity to work on this important initiative with Natural Resources Canada, and we look forward to working with you in the future for the development of First Nations and the forest industry.

This publication reviews Canadian Forest Service research as it corresponds to the thematic areas expressed in the Course of Action, highlighting the extent to which the Service's program responds to Canadian forest policy initiatives and forest sector priorities. The thematic areas covered are: a team approach to forest science & technology management; developing methodologies for measuring indicators for sustainable forest management; public participation; forest ecosystems; the forest industry; forest stewardship; and relationships with Aboriginal peoples. For each area, the underlying issue is stated, followed by an overview of research and a selection of current experiments & studies.

Book Changing the Culture of Forestry in Canada

Download or read book Changing the Culture of Forestry in Canada written by Marc G. Stevenson and published by University of Alberta Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Existing institutions and rules of engagement for sustainable forest management (SFM) in Canada are not designed to accommodate the rights or interests of its Aboriginal peoples. In recognition of this, there has emerged a community of Aboriginal partners and academic researchers committed to changing forestry practices, institutions, and policies. They have collectively undertaken research to address the needs, rights, and interests of forest-dependent Aboriginal communities, with the intention of producing knowledge and skill sets needed to reform forest and resource development sectors. This is the first of two volumes that will highlight the most current and critical research undertaken by this community of practice. While this book and upcoming companion volume are aimed directly at Canada's forest sector, the implications of this research should be of considerable interest and value to all who have a vested interest in natural resource development and management on lands where Aboriginal peoples assert constitutionally protected rights and interests. By attempting to create the ethical space for Aboriginal peoples in building new institutions and policies for their engagement in SFM, this volume addresses some of the most pressing environmental and social issues that Canadians face today.

Book Community Forestry in Canada

Download or read book Community Forestry in Canada written by Sara Teitelbaum and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, community forestry has taken root across Canada. Locally run initiatives are lauded as welcome alternatives to large corporate and industrial logging practices, yet little research has been done to document their tangible outcomes or draw connections between their ideals of local control, community benefit, ecological stewardship, and economic diversification and the realities of community forestry practice. This book brings together the work of over twenty-five researchers to provide the first comparative and empirically rich portrait of community forestry policy and practice in Canada. Tackling all of the forestry regions from Newfoundland to British Columbia, it unearths the history of community forestry, revealing surprising regional differences linked to patterns of policy-making and cultural traditions. Case studies celebrate innovative practices in governance and ecological management while uncovering challenges related to government support and market access. The future of the sector is also considered, including the role of institutional reform, multiscale networks, and adaptive management strategies.
