Land and Resources (Comprehensive Claims) 

Land and resources agreements (sometimes referred to as land claim agreements) provide clarity and certainty in relation to Aboriginal and Treaty rights over land and resources. These agreements provide the Aboriginal party with title to certain lands, provide for rights in relation to the harvesting of wildlife, plants and trees, provide for resource management (land, water, renewable resources, and regulation of the environment) and other matters related to the above. These agreements usually also include a financial component for the Aboriginal party.

Land and resources negotiations in the NWT are guided by the Federal Comprehensive Claims policy.
