Checking progress towards implementing the NWT Water Stewardship Strategy: Action Plan 2021-2025 (the 2021-2025 Action Plan) builds on the momentum of previous action plans and is critical to ensure effective progress is being made in achieving the vision of Northern Voices, Northern Waters: NWT Water Stewardship Strategy (the Strategy) and to indicate where adjustments are needed. It is important that the evaluation criteria for checking progress is objective, ensures accountability, and is directly linked to desired outcomes and identified performance indicators. Work towards checking our progress falls under two main themes – routine checks and independent evaluation.
Routine Checks
