Program Purpose (French)
Le projet vise à élaborer et à appuyer la mise en oeuvre d'une stratégie proactive à long terme afin de porter au maximum les retombées des activités forestières de l'usine White River Forest Products (WRFP) pour les membres de la Première Nation de Pic Mobert et son économie. Le projet vise avant tout à accroître le nombre d'emplois pour les femmes et les jeunes dans le secteur forestier, notamment dans la fabrication, la foresterie et l'administration. Dans le cadre de ce projet, les membres de la communauté poursuivent des études postsecondaires dans des programmes d'acquisition de nouvelles compétences et/ou de formation professionnelle en rapport avec l'exploitation d'usines, y compris le cubage des bois ronds, la foresterie, la comptabilité et l'ingénierie; de plus, de trois à cinq nouvelles entreprises ou coentreprises communautaires sont prévues pour appuyer les activités et répondre aux besoins en matière de fabrication et de récolte de l'usine WRFP.
