FNMPC UPCOMING EVENTS

The First Nation’s Major Project Coalition is pleased to announce our 7th Annual Conference

“Our Collective Advantage: Indigenous Consent”

Companies – and countries – that honour and incorporate Indigenous consent across their supply chains hold a collective advantage over those who do not. Canada and the United States have the resources, clean energy and society to attract the capital, production and innovation that the world needs to build a sound economic and environmental future.

Join us April 22-23, 2024, in Toronto, Canada where we will show you how this collective advantage is being achieved, and where the potential is.

Addressing the Global Energy Crisis From An Indigenous Lens

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 15th – 9AM pst – 10AM pst

As part of the global strategy to balance climate and energy objectives to meet global demand, development of many different types of energy sources is required, including Hydrogen, SMRs and traditional energy sources. This presents unique opportunities and challenges for Indigenous nations, industry, and investors. Across North America, proper implementation of Indigenous values and respect for Indigenous rights and interests must form the basis for which we drive investment opportunities, energy access to global nations, and a path towards a more sustainable and equitable energy future.
