Global Vision is now accepting applications for the Arctic Youth Ambassador Caucus (AYAC) being held in Iqaluit, NU from October 28th – November 1st , 2015.
Are your students curious about indigenous culture and history? Do they have a passion for development and advocacy? Are they interested in developing their leadership skills through a boots-on-the-ground experience in Canada’s final frontier? Then the AYAC is for them!
At the Caucus, students will join with their Northern peers to learn more about this region of Canada and work on finding innovative solutions to some of the pressing challenges the North faces. At the Caucus, students will:
• Engage in Roundtables on Northern issues such as Food Security, Health Care, Environment and Education;
• Meet with the Elders to learn about the rich history of Nunavut;
• Learn about Northern culture from their peers;
• Discover the rich culture and sights of Iqaluit as they work in teams to compete in the Amazing Race: Iqaluit;
• Share unique experiences with new friends from Coast, to Coast, to Coast.
For more information and to apply for this Global Vision opportunity, please visit http://www.globalvision.ca/ayac . If students have any questions, contact Mr Pearce or Ms Patterson and one of them will contact Global Vision on your behalf.
