Prosperous Transition Campaign (PTC) is Iron & Earth’s Indigenous informed response towards a new economic framework which considers the knowledge of experts from various fields, contributing to a future where vulnerable people, workers, and local communities are at the forefront of every conversation. The overarching goal of this work is to contribute towards the establishment of sustainable economies that allow for generational prosperity for all people living in so-called Canada.
PTC research places self-determination and Indigenous jurisdiction at the heart of our approach, challenging eurocentric research processes and outcomes. We aim to establish a critical approach to community engagement and research for Indigenous and marginalized communities in Canada who seek to understand alternative energy technologies and relevant topics that might impact capacity and development.
Our previous and current research projects are still in progress. In order to maintain accountability to the communities we are working with, the reports will remain internal to respect the privacy, consent and political goals of each community, until further notice.
Iron & Earth is well-positioned to work with diverse communities at early stages of engagement and project development. Indigenous principles of engagement prioritize Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC); we seek to understand how this approach can be better respected and implemented within a growing industry.
