Published purpose

This project will support the Tundra Science and Culture Camp, an immersive eight-day educational program that brings together high school students, educators, researchers, and Tłı̨chǫ knowledge holders to learn about tundra ecosystems, Indigenous culture, environmental stewardship, and northern science. Through hands-on field experiences, cultural activities, and inquiry-based learning at the Tundra Ecosystem Research Station, participants develop knowledge of Arctic landscapes, wildlife, resource management, and traditional knowledge. The program strengthens cross-cultural understanding, builds northern capacity in science and environmental education, and inspires future careers in natural sciences, environmental studies, and related fields.
