Sustainability Background

Ocean Protection Pilot Site in Cambridge Bay Nunavut

Erin supported the successful bid and 5 years of implementation of the Ekaluktutiak Hunters and Trappers Organization’s (EHTO) Pilot Site for the Governmance of Canada’s Ocean Protection Plan.

She developed partnerships and supported the EHTO to create the multi-staleholder Victoria Island Waterway Safety Committee, which created and secured protection for an essential caribou and hunter sea ice crossing.

We also partnered with NTI and TC to hire marine monitors which led to interseption of an illegal transit during the COVD-19 pandemic.

Wherever possible, Ishka Consulting operates within the Indigenous governance framework in which a project takes place.

Erin’s experience, understanding and approach was shaped over time working closely with Inuit throughout Inuit Nunaat and by early career experiences with the Heiltsuk Nation and the Lower Fraser Fisheries Alliance on the West Coast. A seventh generation Canadian, Erin’s early teachers were the animals and plants of Algonquin Anishinabe Aki in Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec. She is committed to deepening her relationships with the communities, practices, and philosophies of the places she loves so much and calls home.
