During the first few months of 2009 the Tlicho Government sponsored photo workshops for our personnel along with a few high school students in all four Tlicho communities including Behchoko, Whati, Wekweeti and Gameti. The workshops were attended by a total of some 30 participants. The quality of the imagery is impressive and much of it has already been put to good use in the annual report of the Tlicho Government.
