Nearly one-third of wildfire evacuations in Canada involve
Indigenous communities. While evacuations are carried out to
protect people from smoke and flames, deciding to leave brings its
own challenges. Based on interviews with evacuees from seven First
Nations, this book outlines how Indigenous communities and external
organizations can best prepare for the different stages of a
wildfire evacuation, including: deciding when to leave putting a
plan in motion troubleshooting transportation finding accommodation
caring for evacuees returning home. With climate change increasing
the likelihood of wildfires around the world, this book is an
invaluable resource for any community at risk from fire.
