The stewardship of Alberta's resources requires informed decision-making at local, regional, and provincial scales based on the best available knowledge from multiple knowledge systems. In the interest of advancing Indigenous community-based monitoring (ICBM) in Alberta, interviews were conducted with participants from 51 First Nations and Métis organizations across Alberta. The resulting report provides a snapshot of the ICBM landscape in Alberta, related to needs, interests and readiness to engage in community-based monitoring from the lens of First Nations and Métis organizations between 2015 and 2018.

Description

The miyo resource discusses foundational beliefs and approaches of Indigenous peoples to promote well-being and resiliency and outlines an evaluative process that honours an Indigenous worldview. This resource supports provincial implementation of the Well-Being and Resiliency Framework by outlining an evaluative framework that recognizes culturally-based practice and assesses program effectiveness and the achievement of outcomes in a meaningful way. The miyo resource was developed recognizing that western-based evaluation practices are generally not effective when working with Indigenous communities. It includes a model for service delivery and outcome and performance measurement that accurately and culturally assesses the impact and value of culturally designed services provided by and for Indigenous client populations.
