Youth from Japan, Afghanistan, Mexico, Africa, South America, Scandinavia and Greenland met in Nuuk this week for a leadership and cultural exchange program called Igalaaq or the “Window to the World Exchange Program.”
The WWEP gathering also involved guest teachers from the Nordic countries and Nuuk.
WWEP wants to increase young peoples’ participation in political life, bring them an awareness of new ideas, and promote Greenland as well as the Nordic countries.
The project’s leader is Caroline Cournoyer, who managed cultural programs at the 2002 Arctic Winter Games for Iqaluit.
