March 4-5, 2009 Role of Traditional Knowledge (Summary notes)

This made-in-the-North Strategy will guide the effective long-term stewardship of our water resources. The Strategy’s development process has been led by a committee of Aboriginal and government representatives that have worked hard to ensure the voices of NWT residents have been heard on issues related to ecosystem health, sustainable development and the socio-cultural importance of water.

For information about current and past water quality and quantity monitoring sites, see the NWT Water Monitoring Inventory. The inventory (last updated in 2013) includes monitoring undertaken by federal, territorial and Aboriginal governments, communities, and industry.
