Indigenous. 1. UWS Indigenous HDR load has ranged from 1.7% to 2.5% of all HDR students in the last few years. UWS continues to seek improvements in the Indigenous HDR load including through expanding the number of Yarramundi scholarships from two to four and seeking to embed Indigenous scholarship opportunities in selected external funding applications.
Indigenous. The National Housing Strategy recognizes the Government of Canada’s commitment to a nation-to-nation, Inuit-to-Crown, government-to-government relationship with Indigenous peoples. The National Housing Strategy commits the Government of Canada to fund and co- develop distinctions-based housing strategies for and with First Nations, Inuit and Métis Nation partners. The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador looks forward to collaborating with all Indigenous governments and communities on developing safe and affordable housing. Investments in Nunatsiavut through the Inuit Housing Strategy and the eligibility of other communities to benefit from other distinctions-based strategies help address an important segment of the overall housing need in Newfoundland and Labrador. While not included within the distinctions-based strategies, Indigenous households living off-reserve are fully eligible to benefit from all programs and services under this Action Plan. Indigenous governments and organizations will be prioritized within the Provincial Housing and Homelessness Partnership Fund in recognition of the distinct needs of Indigenous communities, particularly those in Labrador, regarding the risk of homelessness.

Woodside has been working to implement a more collaborative approach to training and employment amongst its contractors for some time. It is hoped that a successful pilot program will lead to more sustainable employment for Indigenous people. “It taught me how to communicate and be reliable. I needed to have extra support when I first started, as I was embarrassed and felt out of place in the first few weeks. I really love my job and my managers. I know each week I have Woodside-funded programs such as the Xxxxxxx Peninsula Family Empowerment Project are beginning to show results through Indigenous-led solutions (See the National Leadership Case Study) and we will continue to seek opportunities to influence outcomes through the work of our partners.
