The Tłı̨chǫ Government has released its draft Tłı̨chǫ Government Consultation and Engagement Guidelines for Developers.
These Guidelines formalize the procedures for engagement on proposals for development on Tłı̨chǫ lands and throughout Mǫwhì Gogha Dè Nı̨ı̨tłèè. Those subject to these guidelines includes, but are not limited to, resource extraction companies (in all stages of development from exploration through to closure and reclamation), outfitter lodges, hydropower developers and operators, among others, and federal or territorial government work related to resource management. These guidelines also apply to research conducted in support of commercial project activities.
These guidelines apply to parties who have existing relationships with the Tłı̨chǫ Government, those already working in Mǫwhì Gogha Dè Nı̨ı̨tłèè as well as to parties who are new to the region. Tłı̨chǫ Government is seeking comments on the guidelines.
