Prosperous Transition Plan

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.

Iron & Earth was founded within Treaty 6 Territory and within the Métis homelands and Métis Nation of Alberta Region 4. We acknowledge this land as the traditional territories of many First Nations, including the Nehiyaw (Cree), Denesuliné (Dene), Nakota Sioux (Stoney), Anishinaabe (Saulteaux), and Niitsitapi (Blackfoot).

Iron & Earth acknowledges that our work takes place on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of Indigenous Peoples across Canada. We recognize the ongoing impacts of colonialism and the deep connection that Indigenous communities have with the land, water, and environment. Our commitment to a Just Transition is informed by Indigenous land stewardship principles. We are dedicated to fostering partnerships with Indigenous communities, respecting their sovereignty, and learning from their knowledge and traditions. We strive to ensure that our initiatives are inclusive and support community-driven climate solutions, contributing to a sustainable and equitable future for all. We honor the diverse histories, languages, and cultures of Indigenous Peoples and commit to continuing our journey of learning and reconciliation as we work together toward a thriving green economy.
