Arviat Nanisiniq History Project is a great way of bonding with our Elders and to colloborate with our Elders and youth to talk about our history and listen to their knowledge. Our Elders have a lot to say, like my grandparents have told me that they can talk for hours and hours about how they survive and what they have done to survive in the arctic. So don’t be afraid to talk to our Elders and ask them any questions related to Inuit traditional way of life or our history.
Elders have the knowledge to teach our history and traditional way of life to our youth in Arviat. knowing our history and traditional life style is important to know them because we want to keep using them and still want to use them in the future. By colloborating with our Elders is important because they have the knowladge the way inuit survive in the arctic for so many years. That is why it is so important to talk to our elders and get their informations about Inuit history and traditional experience.
Being in this project for me is important because i keep learning when we interview our Elders about their knowladge and learning more about my history and traditional life style. I want to see this project in the future and use the informations to teach our future generation about our history.
