Conclusion The Aboriginal Youth Environmental Program (AYEP)
initiative was an excellent opportunity for our Nation to allow youth mentorship in the Lands program. This allowed the Lands Department to grow after the project training and work experience. The Youth Lands have been hired to continue monitoring the quality of the surface water and developing the Community Mapper System. They will be an integral part of the Land Use Planning for the Nation.
