Notre rôle

L’eau douce est essentielle au maintien de la vie. Les Territoires du Nord-Ouest (TNO) regorgent d’eau douce. Cette eau est essentielle à la santé de l’écosystème et au bien-être social, culturel et économique des résidents du territoire. Les Ténois dépendent de l’eau et des écosystèmes aquatiques pour leur subsistance, leurs loisirs et leur transport.

2025 NWT WSS Implementation Workshop

 

Thank you for joining us at the 16th Annual Water Stewardship Strategy Implementation Workshop, held on October 15-16, 2025 at Chateau Nova, Yellowknife, NT!

 

Over two informative days, more than 130 participants from across the Northwest Territories and beyond came together to reflect on shared progress, celebrate innovation and leadership, and help inform the development of the next 5-year Water Strategy Action Plan.

 

A highlight from Day 1 was the presentation of the 2025 NWT Water Stewardship Awards to Lauren Nolan and Terrell Knapton-Pain—congratulations to both recipients!

The Summary Report will be available soon—stay tuned!

2024 Water Stewardship Gathering

Healing Our Relations to Water

 

For the past few years, the NWT Water Stewardship Strategy has supported Ecology North and other water partners to host an annual youth water stewardship gathering.

 

The 2024 Water Stewardship Gathering was hosted by Ecology North in partnership with Northern Youth Leadership, Treaty Talks NWT, North Slave Métis Alliance, Western Arctic Youth Collective, the Government of the Northwest Territories, and the Foster Family Coalition NWT. The February 2024 gathering lasted four days at the Camp Connections Facility outside of Yellowknife, NT.
