We want this site to be a celebration of all things Tåîchô. Our traditional lands are a vast area of boreal forests, waterways, and tundra stretching from the northern shores of Great Slave Lake to almost touch the southern shores of Great Bear Lake in the Northwest Territories of Canada. From the borders of Nunavut in the east towards the Mackenzie River in the west, our land is rich in wildlife and other resources.
Tłįchǫ Government and the Tłįchǫ Community Services Agency are very proud to announce the results of our Tłįchǫ Scholarships Awards.
2010 marks the 13th year of this annual competition open to Tłįchǫ citizens completing or returning to continue a program of study at the post secondary level.
Today is a significant day in our history. August 4th is a day for Tlicho citizens to remember and celebrate the struggles and the successes of the Tlicho nation. On this day five years ago, the first Tlicho Assembly session was held and the Tlicho Government was officially realized. The day marked the end of a long negotiation process that concluded with the Tlicho Agreement and the signing of Bill C 14 in February 2005. For all Tlicho citizens, today is a day that we remember the end of one journey and the beginning of another.
A conference is being organized and hosted by the Det'on Cho Corporation and the Deneesoline Corporation in Dettah from August 9 to 13, 2010. This weeklong conference is jam packed with world-renowned guest speakers and other educational activities. There is also an incredible opportunity to camp out and meet fellow youth from across the NWT. All participants will have a once in a lifetime opportunity to share their vision and hopes for the future directly with NWT Premier Floyd Roland.
