Matawa First Nations Management
About Matawa First Nations Management
The word ‘Matawa’ is an abbreviation of the Cree word “Mammamattawa” meaning “a place of many rivers coming together” — a name the Chiefs and Elders decided was fitting of the organization to recognize that rivers have been, and continue to act as our lifeline and existence.
Established in 1988, Matawa First Nations Management (MFNM) is an ISO 9001 registered non-profit Tribal Council. Tribal Councils are institutions established as, “a grouping of bands with common interests who voluntarily join together to provide advisory and/or program services to member bands.”
MFNM membership includes 8 First Nations in Treaty 9 and 1 First Nation in Robinson-Superior (though not a signatory to this Treaty). 5 Matawa First Nations are accessible by air and winter road while the other 4 are accessible by all season roads. The combined population of Matawa is over 10,000.
MFNM provides a variety of advisory services and program delivery to our member First Nations. For the past plus 30 years, it continues to thrive and expand services that cater to the needs of the Matawa First Nations including the establishment of 4 umbrella organizations (to view them, go to Corporations).
