Willow Lake Culture/Science Camp


High school students spend 3 weeks at a camp on Willow Lake to complete an experiential science course and learn traditional skills and language on the land.

”This year’s camp took place from Aug. 27 to Sept. 1 at Willow Lake, Northwest Territories. Twelve youth aged 11 to 16 from across the communities of Dehcho First Nations attended, along with Indigenous elders, traditional knowledge holders, community decision makers, land use planners, Dehcho First Nations staff and five graduate students from Laurier’s Northern Water Futures program.” from..https://campusmagazine.wlu.ca/2018/fall-winter/research-file/on-the-land-in-canadas-north.html

Please note: The quality of the audio and video in each interview on NCCIE.CA may vary. NCCIE has been a capacity- and skills-building project for students and youth. They have been "learning-through-doing," learning how to arrange and conduct interviews while, at the same time, gaining experience with the technology.
