The Honorary Guardians Advisory Committee allows youth, elders, and knowledge holders to provide feedback and knowledge to the Territorial Stewardship Department. This committee allows our staff to build protocols and grassroots solutions that are reflective of our youth, elder, and knowledge-holder perspectives. The transfer of this knowledge is important in implementing core program values in all communities.
Your involvement provides you with the opportunity to reconnect to the land and allows your input in the development of our Nlaka'pamux Stewardship Protocols.
Please note that this is a one-year commitment, with the option to stay on the committee at the end of the term. This is an honorarium paid advisory committee, at $50 per hour.
The HGAC will be on the road within these meetings, alternating between communities with an online option.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Rachel Riley at rriley@cna-trust.ca or Ariel Voght at avoght@cna-trust.ca
