The youth from Gjoa Haven and Naujaat are in Norway this week presenting to the Arctic Indigenous Education conference in Guovdageaidnu, a northern Saami community. Following in the footsteps of the Arviat-based Nanisiniq project, the group is working to explore the social history of their communities through digital media, and increase knowledge sharing with local elders.
