About BCALMA
British Columbia Aboriginal Land Managers Association (BCALMA) is non–political and operates as a technical land management advisory body only. BCALMA’s main objective is to engage First Nation Land Managers in opportunities that will enhance their skills and knowledge, and provide tools and systems to efficiently and effectively manage their lands. BCALMA endeavors to assist member First Nations to improve proficiency in the ongoing development, implementation and monitoring of First Nation Land Management practices.
Having the competency and confidence can lead to opting into more advanced land management regimes by First Nations. As many First Nations are already in a more advanced land management regime, such as those under the First Nation Land Management Act, Self-Government initiatives or treaty agreements, it gives developing First Nations the same land management opportunities and benefits.
“We, the British Columbia Aboriginal Land Managers Association (BCALMA), seek to manage our First Nation lands and resources through professional best practices that promote sustainable use in the interest of our future generations.“
