Thaidene Nëné Strategic Plan, 2020-2025 

We developed this five-year strategic plan to help guide our leadership and staff as we work with the parties to lay the foundation of Thaidene Nëné.

Yúnethé Xá Ɂetthën Hádı (Caribou Stewardship Plan)

To support the effective stewardship of caribou, and especially the recovery of the Bathurst caribou, the Łutsël K’é Dene First Nation’s Chief and Council formally approved a community-led caribou stewardship plan called Yúnethé Xá Ɂetthën Hádı in January 2020.

Establishment Agreements

The Thaidene Nëné Indigenous Protected Area is governed by two agreements. The first with the Government of Canada covers the portion of Thaidene Nëné designated a national park reserve. The second with the Government of the Northwest Territories covers the portions of Thaidene Nëné designated as a territorial protected area and a wildlife conservation area.
