Piruqatigiit Resource Centre and Wenson Support Services (WSS) have partnered to create a holistic, Inuit-led alternative educational program for Nunavut children and youth who have left school or are not thriving within mainstream education. This innovative and responsive learning program will be grounded in Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, hands-on learning, land-based education, holistic well-being and life skills development. Inclusive practices (Tunnganarniq), being innovative (Qanuqtuurniq) and working together (Piliriqatigiinniq) are the foundation for this program’s sustainability and success. This program will be an act of reconciliation and efforts to decolonize neurodiversity and learning/teaching paradigms.
