“Land governance: Towards a more just future” (webinar recording)

Published by: David Suzuki Foundation
Authored by: Aimée Craft, Doug White, Danika Billie Littlechild, Marilyn Baptiste, Rachel Plotkin

Biodiversity, Environmental rights community and culture, protected and restored areas, conservation, Indigenous Peoples, policy and regulation, land use, Indigenous protected and conserved areas

This recording captures a live webinar discussion of Indigenous rights and responsibilities.

To help better understand the root causes of conflicts over land use and resource extraction in Canada, and to explore potential pathways to a more just framework for land governance, the conversation examines Indigenous sovereignty, jurisdiction and the concept of “land back.”

Panel:

  • Aimée Craft, associate professor, University of Ottawa
  • Doug White, QC, Lawyer and Chair, BC First Nations Justice Council
  • Danika Billie Littlechild, assistant professor, Carleton University
  • Marilyn Baptiste, former chief, Xeni Gwet’in First Nation
  • Rachel Plotkin, boreal project manager, David Suzuki Foundation

Working with Indigenous colleagues, we also co-produced three short videos that examine past, present and future land governance in Canada. We recommend watching the first two ahead of this recording. The third screens during the webinar.
