The Yukon is a land of trailblazers in Aboriginal self-government. Since 1995, 11 of Yukon's 14 First Nations have become self-governing, and account for more than half of the national total of self-governing First Nations. 

In this podcast series, Voices of Vision: Yukon Aboriginal Self-Government, some of the key people who have been involved in the continuing journey of self-government and implementation share their stories in their own words.

The podcast series, Voices of Vision: Yukon Aboriginal Self-Government, was created in partnership with the Council of Yukon First Nations, the Government of Yukon, the Government of Canada and Self-Governing Yukon First Nations.

Each First Nation in their Final Agreement names areas within their Traditional Territories that are designated as Special Management Areas. Working with Government of Yukon and Government of Canada, they develop joint management plans for these areas.

Learn more about how the Agreements are being implemented to create and protect territorial parks, national parks, and other natural areas of the Yukon.

This resource shares stories and case studies that showcase the Agreements in action to support people in understanding these documents and their role in the Yukon's daily and future life.

Chapter 13 of the Final Agreements is all about Heritage, which includes the designation and protection of historic sites.

The sites are locations that have shaped a way of life for Yukon First Nations and throughout Yukon’s history. They are the places that were used for fishing or hunting, where villages and gathering places stood, or were strategic locations for trading and other activities. Many of these sites are landmarks within Yukon communities and are connected with remarkable people or events in our history.

This resource shares case studies and stories of historic sites that have been designated through the Agreements and shares easy-to-understand information about what the Agreements are and how they impact the daily and future life of the Yukon.

This project was designed to discover which factors made relationships between clients and service providers more successful and to identify barriers that people who use drugs face when accessing social services

An executive summary of a report on a study conducted through the Aboriginal Health Human Resource Initiative (AHHRI) circa 2009-2010, led by Council of Yukon First Nations (CYFN) staff and conducted by Metamorphosis Change Management . The study was a community-based situational analysis to assess Yukon First Nation health and social workplace realities with respect to:  job satisfaction; mental health; cultural competence; core competencies; and how these factors relate to the needs and expectations of Yukon First Nation health and social staff and departments. The purpose of the report was to document observations on current Health and Social Department best practices and challenges and create a toolkit (which is located in the appendices of the report).

The 22-minute MAPP test comprises 71 different questions regarding your ‘likes’ and ‘dislikes’, and should be taken rather quickly, since the ‘reflexive’ answer is preferable to the ‘intellectual’ answer.

The MAPP test has undergone extensive validity and reliability testing by a number of psychologists, including correlating the results to the Strong Interest Inventory®. Reliability studies also indicate that the MAPP test is consistent over time.
