Allied Certifications Ltd.
Foundations for Right Relationship
Holding BC Businesses Accountable for Indigenous Laws & Protocols
BC’s Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous People Act (DRIPA) acknowledges Indigenous Nations’ inherent rights, including the right to benefit from economic activities on their territories. We develop and steward Indigenous Allyship certification programs for businesses on behalf of our First Nation clients. We support BC First Nations to articulate Laws and Protocols and communicate them to business operators. Under the authority of our First Nations clients, we recognize and reward BC Businesses for establishing the Foundations for Right Relationship.
