Abstract

"This paper is an assessment of the Traditional Land Use and Occupancy
Study (TLUOS) on the Dene Tha' First Nation in northern Alberta. Impacts
of the study include: Identification of and greater protection of traditional
Dene Tha' sites; enhanced traditional cultural values and increased
traditional land uses, improved communication with industry and
government; all of which seemed to nurture a greater sense of community
empowerment. These are positive impacts and they could be an
important step in this First Nation achieving greater self-sufficiency.
