The Magpie River (Muteshekau-shipu in the Innu language) is located on Nitassinan, the ancestral territory of the Innu First Nation. This nearly 300 km long river is located in the province of Quebec, Canada, in an area called Minganie, where just over 6,000 people live.

A new manual (version 2) was released in 2020 to support communities, indigenous peoples and those who work with them to register their ICCAs. This manual is intended to guide readers through the process of deciding whether to submit ICCA data, how to submit it, and where to submit it to. It now includes information on other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs).
