BC Assembly of First Nations (BCAFN) resolutions formalize and make decisions on important matters. Resolutions serve as a written record of decisions made by the organization’s governing body or board of directors. These decisions can include approving budgets, adopting policies, making strategic plans, appointing key personnel, authorizing expenditures, and initiating actions for the organization’s overall functioning. BCAFN resolutions provide clarity, establish accountability, and ensure that decisions are made in a consistent and documented manner. They help guide BCAFN’s actions and serve as a reference point for future decision-making and evaluation.
