Indigenous Program Review was a technical examination of the function and evolution of each program to see what might need to change or be improved in order to maximize the benefits to Indigenous Peoples and communities across Canada.<\/p>\n

The Institute began this review by examining evaluations, audits, proposals and practises internal to Fisheries and Oceans Canada, as well as program-related external reports. We also looked at other federal government programs with interconnected objectives or agendas. This part of our work was called a \u2018desktop review.\u2019<\/p>\n

Based on the desktop review, we identified and discussed some common themes and issues, including with the national and regional officials at DFO who are responsible for administering these programs.<\/p>\n

Then, we began to engage Indigenous people in a number of ways.<\/p>\n

First, we prepared\u00a0discussion papers<\/a>\u00a0with questions for groups and individuals to consider answering. Each paper described the program under review, a summary of desktop review findings, the results of our discussions, and the input of departmental officials.<\/p>\n

Second, we met face-to-face with Indigenous communities and groups\u00a0across Canada in\u00a0program-specific workshops and other engagement sessions<\/a>. This includes across Canada\u2019s North.<\/p>\n

Third, we kept multiple channels of communication open for people to feel welcome to share their views and to be able to ask questions. This includes social media (Facebook<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Twitter<\/a>),\u00a0email<\/a>, telephone and postal mail.<\/p>\n
