Through the five day on-the-land fish camp, youth will engage with elders in observing, monitoring and understanding the aquatic ecosystem from the holistic Tłı̨chǫ perspective. In sharing the results through a workshop, community members have a better understanding of important biological aspects of fish, and the health of the aquatic systems.
