On May 12-13, 2022, Tłı̨chǫ Government brought together elders and youth from the Tłı̨chǫ communities to advise and guide the development of the Strategic Intentions for 2021-2025.  Each term, the Tłı̨chǫ leadership develop their Strategic Intentions to guide the work of the government for the next 4 years.  The Tłı̨chǫ Assembly felt it was important for elders and youth to be part of this process.  

 

By bringing together elders and youth, the elders ensure the transmission and preservation of cultural knowledge, and ensures continuity to our past as elders share their wisdom, guidance, and direction. The Strategic Intentions must also ensure that there is relevance into the future. The youth play a vital role in representing the interests and values of the next generation. Youth involvement in the workshop provided them with space to engage in a visioning process and ensured that their voices are included in Tłı̨chǫ Governments priorities for the next four years.
