This collaborative project included interviews with First Nation government officials and staff as well as community members to determine their analyses of what worked and, more significantly, what did not work in engaging and consulting indigenous people. Based upon this research, six key recommendations, derived from First Nations{\textquoteright} experiences, are made; these recommendations would facilitate First Nations{\textquoteright} future participation in environmental assessment processes in British Columbia and Canada.},
