| Summary | The 2021–2025 NWT Water Stewardship Strategy Action Plan supports the long-term goal of ensuring the waters of the Northwest Territories remain clean, abundant, and life-sustaining. Building on the original 2010 Northern Voices, Northern Waters Strategy, it outlines collaborative actions to protect water quality, ensure safe drinking water, maintain healthy aquatic ecosystems, and empower residents in water stewardship. Developed with broad input from Indigenous and non-Indigenous partners, the plan defines clear roles, success factors, action items, and performance indicators to guide implementation and track progress. Regular reviews and public updates ensure accountability and responsiveness to community needs. |
| Local Relevance | It directly addresses the region's unique dependence on clean, abundant water for health, culture, livelihoods, and ecosystems. The Action Plan ensures that decision-making around water remains collaborative, inclusive, and locally driven, incorporating both traditional knowledge and scientific approaches. |
