Stronger Together
At the Indigenous Stewardship Leaders Gathering hosted by Nature United and Tides Canada, attendees discussed strategies, shared success stories, made connections for future projects. But they also focused on well-being — their communities’ and also their own.
Partnerships
Indigenous Guardians
Indigenous Guardians are the “eyes and ears” of their territories – they are men and women who are using Indigenous knowledge and practices, blended with western science to monitor and steward their traditional lands and waters across Canada. Nature United supports these important programs with technical tools, networking, research, and more.
Initiative
Emerging Stewards
Reaching more than 450 students per year, this community-led initiative supported by Nature United connects youth of all ages to the natural world just outside their front door.
United as Nature and People
Our vision is for a sustainable Canada where nature is the foundation of human well-being, prosperity and opportunity for future generations.
