GNWT begins public engagement on MMIWG Draft Action Plan

June 29, 2022

The Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) is asking for input on Changing the Relationship: the GNWT Draft Action Plan to Address the Calls for Justice on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG).

Over the coming months, the GNWT will engage with Indigenous governments, community governments, other partners, people with lived experience and all NWT residents to seek feedback on existing and new programs and services, planned improvements and new initiatives to address the Calls for Justice.

NWT residents can participate in this process by:

Providing written feedback. The GNWT Gender Equity Division is accepting feedback on the Draft Action Plan by email at genderequity@gov.nt.ca.

Participating in a community meeting. A schedule for all public engagement sessions is available at: https://haveyoursay.nwt-tno.ca/mmiwg
