Home / Programs & Services / Title & Rights
As one of 17 member organizations of the Secwepemc Nation, we the Splatsin, aim to ensure our people occupy, use and enjoy the entire traditional territory. As Secwepemc, our territory is unceded, held collectively and is protected by Section 35 of the constitution and existing case law. On behalf of the nation, ancestors and those yet unborn, Splatsin has a responsibility to act as caretakers for our territory and all the living things in it. The Title & Rights Department protects and preserves our territory, cultural resources, and culturally significant sites.
In collaboration with Kukpi7 & Tkwamipla7 (Chief & Council), the Title & Rights department works to build relationships with stakeholders including municipal, regional, provincial and federal governments.
In collaboration with Kukpi7 & Tkwamipla7 (Chief & Council), the Title & Rights Department works on exerting jurisdiction over the lands and resources through effective natural resource management, joint ventures, and agreements. This includes negotiations and partnerships with resource-based industries such as clean energy, forestry, and tourism.
There are many engagement opportunities available throughout the year. Contact the Title & Rights Department if you would like to be involved. Opportunities will be posted here when they become available.
