First Nations Land and Resource Information
Needs Assessment
BC Treaty Commission
Land and resource information needs were believed
to be impediments for some First Nations to completing Interim Measures
Agreements and/or Agreements in Principle as part of the treaty
process in British Columbia. ESSA Technologies Ltd. was hired to
explore the nature and extent of potential problems in this area.
We designed an in-depth, 90-question survey that
covered nine information management topics, and mailed it to 43
First Nations in Stage IV of the BC treaty process. We also interviewed
representative from five First Nations in person to better understand
the problems and identify potential solutions. We prepared a report
that contained a synthesis of the feedback, an analysis of the results,
and a suite of recommendations.
