Description (French)
Il s’agit d’un programme de bourses de 9 mois qui immerge 21 jeunes autochtones et ruraux d’Alaska, du Groenland et de l’Arctique et du Nord canadien dans divers apprentissages expérientiels axés sur la constitution de collectivités arctiques résilientes, y compris la manière de participer au développement économique et à la gestion des ressources naturelles de l’Arctique de manière responsable, durable, inclusive, et d’en bénéficier.
Les boursiers participent régulièrement à des formations en ligne et rencontrent des experts mondiaux de premier plan, issus de divers horizons, sur une série de questions relatives à l’Arctique, notamment du monde universitaire, d’organismes autochtones, d’industries extractives, de collectivités arctiques, d’entités gouvernementales et d’ONG.
Expected Results
1) More local youth are prepared for and hired into positions of leadership to effect change within their communities, local and international businesses, and the broader Arctic.
2) Participants apply the training, knowledge, and mentorship from the fellowship to develop individual projects to advance resilience in their home communities.
3) A cycle of mentorship is created by encouraging fellows and other youth to pass along their knowledge and conduct their own mentorship with other Arctic youth.
Expected Results (French)
1) Un nombre accru de jeunes de la région sont préparés et embauchés à des postes de direction afin d’apporter des changements au sein de leurs collectivités, des entreprises locales et internationales, et de l’Arctique en général.
2) Les participants appliquent la formation, les connaissances et le mentorat fournis dans le cadre de la bourse pour créer des projets individuels qui font progresser la résilience dans leurs collectivités d’origine.
3) Un cycle de mentorat est créé en encourageant les boursiers et les autres jeunes à transmettre leurs connaissances et à mener leur propre mentorat avec d’autres jeunes de l’Arctique.
