  • Arctic Indigenous Youth Alliance

    The Arctic Indigenous Youth Alliance seeks to connect the vision of the youth with the wisdom of the Elders, and to relate Traditional Knowledge and Values to issues of development and globalization. Our goal is to provide education and leadership development to Northern Indigenous youth. We seek to empower the youth to engage decision makers (industry and government), and equip them to make decisions for a sustainable development framework based on the traditional knowledge and customary practices of the Dene and Inuvialuit Indigenous peoples.
