Saturviit Women’s Association is looking to honour Nunavimmiut women who have a positive influence on others.
The organization is now taking nominations for its first-ever role model awards, which will honour four exceptional Nunavimmiut women, one from each of Nunavik’s regions: Ungava Bay, Hudson Strait, Hudson Bay and southern Quebec.
The association is seeking nominees who:
- Are positive role models for other women.
- Have demonstrated commitment to their own community.
- Have personal attributes that inspire others.
- Are strong public speakers.
- Have shown the ability to overcome obstacles.
- Promote higher education.
You can submit a nomination by email to coordinator@saturviit.ca, by phone at 438-495-2689 or in person by speaking to any of Saturviit’s board members.
Nominations are due by Feb. 17.
The four selected role models will be invited to attend Saturviit’s annual women’s conference, Arnaliat Nipingit, which will be held this March in Kuujjuaraapik.
