HONOURING OUR YOUTH – The ’24 Yukon Youth Summit began Wednesday with the elder, youth and educator awards at the Yukon Arts Centre. Emeral Poppe (above) from Watson Lake was one of the youth receiving an award for ‘her unwavering commitment to revitalizing the Kaska language and advocating for her culture. Returning to her community after university, she immersed herself in learning and teaching Kaska.’ The summit continues until Friday at the arts centre and Yukon University.
