SECTION 1: INSTRUCTIONS TO PROPONENTS

1. Background - The Games

Between July 11-19, 2020, Halifax and Nova Scotia will host the 2020 North American

Indigenous Games. 5,000 athletes, coaches and managers from 26 regions across Turtle

Island will gather in Kjipuktuk (Halifax) to compete in 16 different sports. This will mark the

first time that the North American Indigenous Games have been hosted in Nova Scotia and

Atlantic Canada.

The Games bring many tangible and intangible benefits to the host community. It is a

significant endeavor that requires thousands of volunteers and much planning and

preparation. The Games will cost about $12 million to deliver and of which, almost $1

million must be raised from the private sector. The 2020 North American Indigenous Games

Host Society is a non-profit organization and all sponsorships help make these games a

success.

The Games provide the opportunity to highlight both sport and Indigenous culture to

participants and also the general public as a whole. The Host Society has focused on

respecting both pillars throughout all functional areas of NAIG 2020. The 2020 Games will

tell the story of the Mi’kmaw/Indigenous Sport and Culture which will be passed on to today’s indigenous youth through their experiences at the Games. Merchandise will provide the story before, during and following the games through visual products which will help

the memories of the Games live on. The Host Society’s goal is to have the Mi’kmaw nation and all participants want to take a piece of the experience home with them.
