Project Summary

The Délı̨nę Got’ı̨nę Government (DGG) is the first combined Indigenous and public government in Canada. The DGG assumed the authorities, programs, and services of the Délı̨nę First Nation, Délı̨nę Land Corporation, and Charter Community of Délı̨nę into one government. It represents and serves the people of Délı̨nę, including all Délı̨nę First Nations and land claim beneficiaries no matter where they live. Kellett has been tasked with creating forms, posters, advertisements, and a website to help raise awareness about events in the community.

Client needs

  • New modern, mobile-friendly design
  • View recent news and upcoming events in the community
  • View Employment opportunities

Approach

Initially built on a proprietary CMS, the platform soon proved insufficient for meeting all of their functional needs, so it was re-developed on Drupal 10. We determined Drupal's built in features would prove more useful.

Result

Drupal’s content management system offers the client a user-friendly and flexible platform that empowers them to easily add, edit, and manage content on their own schedule.

The site now features enhanced functionality, including a job board where employment opportunities can be filtered by department as well as by full-time or part-time positions—making it easier for users to find relevant listings. Additionally, a custom-built calendar was implemented, allowing visitors to seamlessly browse through both upcoming and past events in a visually engaging and intuitive way.

Client Need and Result

Develop a general promotional poster and a detailed carnival schedule. The design materials should convey a sense of community, incorporate Indigenous cultural elements, and maintain a professional appearance, all while embracing a playful 'slush' theme appropriate for the community-focused nature of the event.
