Published purpose

This contribution supports the continued implementation of the Pituamkek Conservation Program during the summer and fall 2025 period, an Indigenous-led initiative focused on ecological monitoring and stewardship of the newly established national park reserve. Building on previous contribution agreements, this Guardians-type program strengthens land connection, cultural knowledge, and conservation capacity through seasonal activities and community leadership. Central to this work is the integration of Mi'kmaw traditional knowledge, which guides conservation practices and deepens the cultural and ecological understanding of the land.
