Daghida: Cold Lake First Nation Works Towards Dene Language Revitalization [pdf]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The Daghida Project is a research alliance between the community of Cold Lake First Nations and the University of Alberta sponsored by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. As is the case in many First Nations communities in North America (Blair & Fredeen, 1995; Crawford, 1995; Kirkness, 1998; Zepeda & Hill, 1991), the people of Cold Lake are very concerned about the risk of losing their language. In this paper, we will outline the context of language loss on the Cold Lake First Nations (CLFN) reserve as well as describe the collaborative research project between the academic community and that of Cold Lake First Nations and the efforts supported by this project to revitalize the Dene Suline language.
