The word "Dene", when translated, is broken down into two words, "De" meaning flow and "Ne" meaning Mother Earth. This encompasses an understanding that we flow from Mother Earth and we are a people of the Creator and Creation.

Hi everyone. I’m new here! Background in nursing, law and research. Downstream from the tar sands. Grateful to have been blessed to learn our traditional ways from our elders. From hide tanning, to dene astronomy, to our laws, language, botanical knowledge and everything in between ❤️ Dene Ways
