First Nations Effective Practices
Getting Things Done in Aboriginal Communities, Businesses and Organizations

Research and Analysis Directorate Reports
Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development
June, 1997


Questions such as how we can make our governments work more effectively and our communities better places in which to live, are of special significance to First Nations as they gradually regain control of their own affairs. With limited resources, it is vital that First Nations develop the most effective ways to strengthen and govern their communities. They have numerous stories to relate about overcoming obstacles and finding solutions to their community needs.

INAC, working with First Nations across Canada, has compiled a collection of effective practice case study reports. These reports detail undertakings ranging from cutting-edge fishing practices to custom-designed preschool programs. It must be stressed that these effective practices are not to be considered the best and only effective way of getting things done, but are simply presented with the hope that they will provide inspiration and insight to others who are working to strengthen their own communities.
