The Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit Adventure

Intergenerational Knowledge

Elders

“…are our connection to the past. They are the keepers of our words and the builders of our cultural identity. They are our teachers. From them we learn how to live well. Through this sharing, elders guide us along the land and sea that have shaped our people.”

Youth

“…face the challenge of balancing bustling modern lives with strong traditional values. Traditional knowledge and modern education meet in instructing our youth to live happy, healthy lives. A proud cultural identity gives youth a solid foundation on which to build a balanced future.”
