Developed alongside the Southern Lakes Caribou Management Plan and guided by a Working Group with representatives from Teslin Tlingit Council, Carcross/Tagish First Nation, Ta’an Kwäch’än Council, Kwanlin Dün First Nation, Taku River Tlingit First Nation, and Champagne and Aishihik First Nations, Rivers to Ridges has been coordinating the revitalization of the Caribou in the Schools Learning Resource since 2018.

Caribou in the Schools invites educators and students to learn from the land, the caribou, and the Indigenous Knowledge Keepers who continue to guide their stewardship. Grounded in Indigenous-led education design, this resource explores the unique history and ongoing story of the Southern Lakes Caribou through caribou-focused, land-based learning. These experiences honour Indigenous knowledge systems and strengthen understanding of the deep relationships between people, animals, and place that continue to sustain the Southern Lakes region.
