Acknowledging Witsuwit’en territory: A Speaking guide

Acknowledging Witsuwit’en territory: A Speaking guide

The main purpose of this information booklet is to provide community members with a protocol that respectfully acknowledges the traditional Witsuwit’en territories (yin tah) when hosting events. This protocol serves to acknowledge the importance of our shared sense of space and place and to recognize the spirit of the land. We are bringing history to life. We remain on Witsuwit’en territories that were never ceded through treaty, war or surrender. Our shared sense of place provides an educational opportunity to connect and celebrate our relationship to the land.
