Résumé
The project being proposed by the British Columbia Search and Rescue Association (BCSARA) will react to feedback and engagement with First Nations communities in B.C that suggests a need for Search and Rescue (SAR) prevention programs and materials to be more inclusive and culturally appropriate. The concept of a NIF project to consult with Indigenous organizations and communities on SAR prevention materials and activities was brought forward to the BCSARA board several years ago, at that time another priority was chosen. Several recent events and changes present an opportunity to move such a project ahead, these include: -Establishment of the First Nations Coordination Unit in Emergency Management British Columbia (EMBC), providing a link between the EMBC role in supporting SAR, including prevention, and Indigenous Nation to Nation conversations providing an opportunity to include SAR related discussion. -Regional Partnership Tables being developed through Indigenous Nation conversations providing an opportunity to include SAR related discussion. -Interest in corroborating in Adventure Smart programs being received from several indigenous organizations including the Indigenous Sport, Physical Activity and Recreation Council and the Aboriginal Youth Mountain Bike Association.

Description (French)
Le projet proposé par l'Association de recherche et de sauvetage de la Colombie-Britannique (BCSARA) réagira aux commentaires et à l'engagement des communautés des Premières Nations en Colombie-Britannique, suggérant qu'il est nécessaire que les programmes et matériels de prévention en recherche et sauvetage (SAR) soient plus inclusifs et adaptés à la culture. Le concept d'un projet du FNI visant à consulter les organisations et les communautés autochtones sur les matériels et activités de prévention SAR a été présenté au conseil d'administration de BCSARA il y a plusieurs années. À cette époque, une autre priorité avait été choisie. Plusieurs événements et changements récents représentent une opportunité de faire avancer un tel projet, notamment: -L’établissement de l’unité de coordination des Premières nations pour la gestion des urgences en Colombie-Britannique (EMBC), fournissant un lien entre le rôle de EMBC dans le soutien à la RS, y compris la prévention, et Les conversations entre nations autochtones offrent l’occasion d’inclure des discussions relatives à la RS. -Des tables de partenariat régionales en cours d'élaboration au cours de conversations avec les nations autochtones, offrant la possibilité d'inclure une discussion liée à la RS. -Intérêt pour corroborer les programmes AdventureSmart reçus de plusieurs organisations autochtones, notamment le Conseil du sport, de l'activité physique et des loisirs indigène et de l'Association de jeunes cyclistes en montagne.
Expected Results
Immediate Outcomes: The immediate outcomes of the proposed project will be the review and adoption of culturally appropriate Search and Rescue (SAR) prevention materials.
Intermediate Outcomes: Increased relationships between Indigenous communities, Search and Rescue (SAR) prevention practitioners and SAR groups throughout BC. These relationships will be integral in reducing the number and severity of SAR incidents across BC. Long Term Outcomes: The key long term outcome from the proposed project will be a marked reduction in the frequency and severity of Search and Rescue (SAR) incidents.
Expected Results (French)
Résultats immédiats: Les résultats immédiats du projet proposé seront l'examen et l'adoption de matériels de prévention de la recherche et du sauvetage (SAR) adaptés à la culture. Résultats intermédiaires: Augmentation des relations entre les communautés autochtones, les praticiens de la prévention en recherche et sauvetage (SAR) et les groupes de RS en Colombie-Britannique. Ces relations contribueront à réduire le nombre et la gravité des incidents de RS en Colombie-Britannique. Résultats à long terme: Le principal résultat à long terme du projet proposé sera une réduction marquée de la fréquence et de la gravité des incidents de recherche et de sauvetage (SAR).
