The youth/elder camp was the brainchild of Bruce Maclean, research coordinator for Mikisew Cree First Nation Government and Industry Relations.

"We put on a camp for all the kids in Fort Chip{\textquoteright}s school as an idea we{\textquoteright}ve had to teach kids in a traditional setting about environmental science from a traditional knowledge perspective and a Western science perspective," Maclean said.

"It{\textquoteright}s about the kids. They have a chance to see what{\textquoteright}s out there in terms of science and what kind of careers are out there in science, in environmental science, and learn about the culture of the region and access to land and exerting their traditional rights to hunt, trap and fish," Maclean said.},
