This website provides general information about the resource management system in the Northwest Territories.

The Northwest Territories is rich in resources like wildlife, water, minerals, oil and gas, and breathtaking landscapes that have sustained its Aboriginal inhabitants and other northerners for countless generations. These resources also contribute greatly to Canada’s wealth and they are an important part of Canada’s national identity
Protecting, managing and developing these resources requires a strong partnership between Northerners, Aboriginal governments, the federal government and the territorial governments. In the Northwest Territories, this partnership is known as the resource management system. This system is a unique network of resource management boards, governments and other organizations that are committed to serving the best interests of Northwest Territories residents and all of Canada.
