The journal aims to share\, strengthen\, and celebrate Northern peoples’ relationships to land\, languages\, cultures\, and ways of life. Xàgots’eèhk’ǫ̀ Journal is a collaborative project led by partners from Aurora College\, Hotıì ts’eeda: NWT SPOR Support Unit\, and Dechinta Centre for Research and Learning. Development of the journal was funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Council of Canada (SSHRC).What does Xàgots’eèhk’ǫ̀ mean?Xàgots’eèhk’ǫ̀ means “having a campfire” in Tłı̨chǫ Yatii (Tlicho language). This word was chosen by Tłı̨chǫ Elder Rosa Mantla. This name was chosen because a campfire is where people gather to share stories\, seek warmth\, and cook food. Like a campfire\, the journal is a space to exchange information and bring together voices from across the North.What is in the first issue?The first issue contains artwork\, research and review articles\, interviews\, personal experiences\, program reports\, book reviews\, and pieces that memorialize Northerners.
