This position will remain open until a successful candidate is found.
The role is part project coordinator (scheduling, communicating, following-up and logistics) and part facilitator (supporting the design and delivery of workshops, webinars and field days). The Coordinator works alongside the RAL team that currently consists of a Project Manager, Communications Coordinator and Manager. The Coordinator invites, informs, and connects with the participants, who span across the agri-food value chain (agricultural producers, academics, food retailers), and are connected by their vision for regenerative agriculture in Alberta.
Siksikaitsitapi Agriculture Project (SAP) is seeking representative members of the Siksika, Kainai, and Piikani Nations to form the Siksikaitsitapi Advisory Committee. The committee will consist of Blackfoot Knowledge Keepers, Elders, farmers, ranchers, food security specialists, and public/environmental/mental health professionals.
The SAP Advisory Committee will advise and support the inclusion of Siksikaitsitapi stakeholders in the areas of agriculture, and in the decision making process of the SAP Project Manager and Project Coordinators by sharing lived experiences, Blackfoot ways of knowing and protocols, and professional knowledge as it pertains to agricultural practices and co-benefits that impact the communities. The advisory committee will also provide Blackfoot cultural guidance to other RR2CS programming and staff as needed, creating a space for respectful relationship building and collaboration between all parties.
