Interim Guide to Indigenous Housing Development and Design
Description Designing and building homes that better meet the needs of First Nation communities is a growing area of interest and research, with new work being undertaken across British Columbia and Canada. The resource guide was developed based on existing secondary research and interviews with First Nations Housing Managers from around B.C., and focuses on community planning for housing design. This includes technical, demographic and cultural considerations. This guide is a good starting point for First Nations and their partners, and highlights resources to help ensure that new housing best meets the needs of the community. Impact The Interim Guide to Indigenous Housing Development and Design provides a high level starting point for First Nations and their partners to help plan and build housing that meets community needs.
