Indigenous Advisors
Commissionaires Northern Alberta, Northwest Territories and Nunavut Division recognizes the importance of listening, learning and building meaningful relationships with Indigenous Peoples and communities. Our Indigenous Advisors provide valuable guidance, perspective and expertise that help inform our ongoing Indigenous relations efforts and support our commitment to reconciliation.
Drawing from diverse professional, community and cultural experiences, our advisors help strengthen organizational understanding, support relationship-building and provide insight as we continue advancing our Indigenous relations journey through the PAIR program.
Through their guidance, we are better positioned to foster respectful engagement, promote cultural awareness and create positive impacts within the communities we serve across northern Alberta, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut.
