Summary | While there is no single best recipe for developing a monitoring framework, there are a number of common components which form the basis of most monitoring programs. This report describes these components and provides a step by step guide for how to build an overarching monitoring framework that is scientifically rigorous, technically feasible, decision-oriented, and scalable. The guidance described herein will help to clarify monitoring priorities, set spatial and temporal boundaries, manage expectations as to what monitoring can and cannot achieve, and provide additional relevant considerations and contextual guidance. This guidance is applied to two different Indigenous communities (Matawa First Nations Management and Dehcho First Nations) to illustrate how it can be applied more broadly. |
Local Relevance | This report provides a guide for building a monitoring framework for Indigenous communities, which is highly relevant to communities in the NWT. One of the case studies is the Dehcho First Nation in the NWT. |
