The Purpose
of the
NWT PAS
The Northwest Territories
Protected Areas Strategy (NWT PAS) was created to help NWT communities
protect special natural and cultural areas of land for the long term.
The NWT PAS was
established in 1999 as an overall framework and set of criteria to guide
the work of identifying and establishing protected areas in the NWT. It
was developed by regional Aboriginal organizations, the federal and
territorial governments, environmental non-governmental organizations,
and industry. These groups worked in partnership to develop the PAS so
that communities lead the process and are able to benefit from both
development and conservation.
The NWT PAS is a partnership program. To see a list
