Feature Initiative

French is an Official Language in the Northwest Territories and the Government of the Northwest Territories recognizes the Francophone language community as an important component of Northwest Territories society and contributor to its social, economic and cultural development.

Today’s children will determine what society will be like in the future. They will shape the world! Our children are precious and full of potential. Yet they are also vulnerable, and deserve to grow up in a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment. Children who are well cared for in their earliest years are far more likely to be successful in school, more productive at work, have greater financial success and be healthier throughout their lives.

Do you know a youth, educator, adult learner or organization in your community that excels in promoting literacy and helping others improve their literacy levels in any of the NWT’s official languages? Nominate someone today!

Deadline for nominations: May 31, 2013
