Trusted Allies in Indigenous-Led Development

Turtle Island Group is proud to work alongside a select group of industry partners who have demonstrated a deep respect for Indigenous Peoples, cultures, lands, and rights.

Each of our partners has been carefully vetted by our leadership and community advisors, and has shown a genuine commitment to economic reconciliation, sustainable development, and working with Indigenous Nations — not just operating on Indigenous lands.

Being a TIG partner is not transactional — it’s relational. Our partners understand that trust must be earned, and that their role is to support, not direct, Indigenous-led initiatives.

A Coalition of Indigenous-Led Strength and Vision

Turtle Island Group (TIG) is a coalition of Indigenous communities, organizations, and development entities working together to reclaim economic power, support sustainable growth, and protect our ancestral lands for generations to come.

We are Indigenous-owned, Indigenous-led, and grounded in the teachings, traditions, and governance systems of our Nations. Our strength comes not from one voice — but from the collective vision of many Nations walking together.

Though rooted primarily in what is now known as Canada, our reach — and our responsibility — extend across all of Turtle Island. We collaborate across artificial borders, uniting First Nations, Tribes, and Indigenous Peoples in the pursuit of prosperity, sovereignty, and environmental balance.

We partner with trusted allies in industry, policy, and community to develop projects that reflect Indigenous priorities — from infrastructure and clean energy to land restoration and community-led enterprise.

What We Stand For:

  • Sovereignty – Indigenous-led decision-making in every project and partnership

  • Stewardship – Deep responsibility to the land, water, and all living beings

  • Solidarity – Standing with Indigenous Peoples across territories and Nations

  • Self-Determination – Building economies that work for our communities, not the other way around

 

We do not wait for change — we build it.
