Management Action Strategy Components
To answer the question of how priority values are monitored and managed by Metlakatla First Nation with support from the Metlakatla CEM Program, the following components should be established:
- Vision and broad desired goal for value
- Values foundation – description of the value, rationale for selection, indicators (condition and stressor), influence diagram, interconnected values, past and current condition, future trend, key management considerations
- Long-term community based monitoring program
- Tiered management triggers and management approach
- Internal management structure
- External management opportunities
- Impact assessment levers
- Knowledge and capacity gaps
- Implementation or operational work plan
Many of these components may have already been developed through other Metlakatla initiatives and projects, but it is important to bring all those pieces together to ensure the overall strategy is holistic, cohesive, effective and practical.
