The Indigenous Participant Funding Program (IPFP) funds projects and initiatives designed to increase the capacity of Indigenous communities and organizations to participate in Canadian Navigable Waters Act and Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act processes.
The policy-based component aims to build capacity and create opportunities for Indigenous communities and organizations to gather information and provide their views to inform the development of policies concerning the implementation of the Canadian Navigable Waters Act and the Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act.
