Published purpose
The Elder-Youth IQ Camp in Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, brings together Inuit Elders and at-risk youth for a land-based, intergenerational learning experience that blends traditional knowledge with scientific methods. Through mentorship, cultural practices, and citizen science, youth build skills, confidence, and environmental awareness while also creating educational media to amplify their voices. The program aims to strengthen community ties, support cultural identity, and serve as a model for similar initiatives across Canada.
