Robinson Huron Waawiindamaagewin (RHW) is preparing the next issue of Treaty Times Magazine, scheduled for release in Summer 2026.
This edition will continue to highlight the strength, resilience, and creativity of communities across the Robinson Huron Treaty territory and we would like your community’s stories to be part of it.
We are reaching out to invite contributions from your community’s writers, photographers, and storytellers. Our goal is to feature content that is community-driven and reflective of local voices, perspectives, and priorities. Contributors may be community members, staff, youth, Elders, or local artists and knowledge keepers.
Opportunities for Contribution
We are seeking interviews, written pieces, and photography on topics such as:
- Youth and Elder profiles
- Spotlights on youth making a difference in the community
- Stories of Elders and Knowledge Keepers, their teachings, histories, and experiences
- Stories from the Land
- Trapping, hunting, fishing, harvesting, and seasonal activities
- Land-based education programs and community initiatives
- Interesting people doing interesting things
- Community champions, advocates, educators, leaders, and grassroots organizers
- New businesses and projects
- Community-owned enterprises, economic development initiatives, and innovative projects
- Member-owned businesses making an impact locally or beyond
- Events and concerts
- Community gatherings, feasts, cultural events, concerts, and celebrations
- Traditional and contemporary arts and artists
- Visual arts, craftwork, beading, regalia, music, film, digital media, and more
Compensation & Format
- Freelance rates will apply to all published stories and photography.
- Contributions can range from short profiles and Q&As to feature-length articles or photo essays.
- If you already have existing content (articles, newsletters, photos, or social media posts) that could be adapted for the magazine, we are happy to work with that as well.
We would greatly appreciate your support in:
- Sharing this call with potential writers, photographers, and storytellers in your community
- Suggesting possible story ideas or people to profile
- Helping to coordinate local interviews or photo opportunities, if needed
