EŁEXETA EDETS'EÈDA "WE WORK TOGETHER": STRENGTHENING SOCIAL COHESION.
- Authors

- Abstract
The mining life and rotational camp work have brought many changes to the T...chϙ community and are affecting family dynamics and support systems. Traditional T...chϙ stories serve as points of reference for Elders and younger generations trying to understand the changes affecting T...chϙ families. This paper focuses on the perspective of the T...chϙ women who have been left to manage the home while their spouses are away at mining camps for weeks at a time. Focus group research has helped to identify challenges, regulatory gaps, and lessons for strengthening social cohesion using traditional T...chϙ values in the modern day.
