Congratulations to the inaugural graduating cohort of the joint Trent-Yellowknives Dene First Nation Indigenous Environmental Studies & Sciences Diploma.

After more than five years of collaboration between Trent faculty and YKDFN leaders, students, families, and staff travelled across the country to celebrate this incredible milestone and the power of community-driven education rooted in Indigenous knowledge and environmental stewardship.

"This program sparked a love of learning and helped me discover strengths and interests I didn't even know I had,” said Myra Conrad, a mature student part of the graduating cohort. “The experience has given me new confidence in my capabilities and a passion to continue to pursue academic studies so that I can give to my community, and to myself and my son, in meaningful ways. If I can do it, anybody can.”
