The Tłı̨chǫ Summer Student Research Assistant Program (TSSRAP) provides an opportunity for two Tłı̨chǫ youth to work alongside university researchers at the Tundra Ecosystem Research Station at Daring Lake, NWT. Participants assist researchers with their projects, including climate change studies, out in the field and in the lab. TSSRAP is a joint initiative of the WRRB and Environment and Natural Resources, GNWT, and is funded by the Aurora Research Institute. Interested youth are encouraged to apply early in June. TSSRAP began in 2013; reports for each year of the program can be viewed here:
