Our Vision

Our communities are healthy, thriving, and self-sufficient, exercising their inherent rights and jurisdiction in their Treaty territory according to Chi-Naaknigewin.

Our Mission

To implement our understanding of Chi-Naaknigewin as the Creator bestowed on us to enable Robinson Huron Waawiindamaagewin communities to grow, thrive and be healthy, self-sufficient and self-determining, exercising our inherent rights and jurisdiction over our governance structures and processes (Gimaakndaadwin), culture, way of life and identity (Gdizhtwaawin’naa); the promotion of community well-being (Mno-Bmaadziwin) and the protection and use of Treaty lands (Gdaakiimnaa).

RHW Strategic Plan

We, Robinson Huron Waawiindamaagewin (RHW), have developed this strategic plan to continue to enhance Treaty governance for our Robinson Huron Treaty. We will maintain and foster Treaty governance collectively, as signatories and adhesions to our Treaty, and will contribute to the meaningful original relationship our ancestors envisioned for us and our future generations. On September 9, 2020, the RHW Chiefs signed the Robinson Huron Waawiindamaagewin Declaration, which outlines our vision for our Treaty and provides the foundation for this strategic plan.
