Creating the Seal River Watershed Indigenous Protected Area for future generations.

Our cultures and languages are rooted in our relationship to the caribou and the land. Protecting the watershed means protecting the spirit of our people.

It also helps address climate change, sustain clean water, and conserve one of the biggest intact watersheds on the planet.  

Dene, Cree, and Inuit Peoples are working to protect the Seal River Watershed for the future.

“The best part of life is being on the land and the water with our children and watching our grandchildren being able to see the beauty of our world.”
— SANDY TRAVERSE O-PIPON-NA-PIWIN CREE NATION
 

Permanently protect the Seal River Watershed from industrial development as an Indigenous Protected Area.

We envision a pristine watershed where people, animals and fish are healthy, our unique languages and cultures are thriving, and there is hope and abundance for all future generations.
