The Inuvialuit Community Economic Development Organization (ICEDO) will expand its Country Foods Processing Plant in Inuvik to create a permanent facility aimed at addressing food insecurity and promoting economic opportunities in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region.
This project aims to create a strategic plan to transform the Inuvialuit Reindeer Herd Initiative from a food security program into a self-sustaining agribusiness. It will also provide an Indigenous-led roadmap for developing culturally appropriate, economically sustainable, and climate-resilient agriculture.
