INDIGENOUS RESOURCE NETWORK
The Indigenous Resource Network (IRN) is a grassroots organization that was established by Indigenous workers for Indigenous workers to provide a platform for workers, business owners, leaders and their allies who support full Indigenous equitable inclusion in the natural resource sector.
Through advocacy, storytelling, education, and partnership-building, the IRN creates opportunities to promote and share responsible economic development and foster self-sufficiency and pride for Indigenous peoples and their communities across Canada.
