Our plans for the Inuusirvik Community Wellness Hub continue to move forward. We have recently been awarded funding for the first year of operations! We continue to work toward acquiring the land and capital we need. But for now, have a look at the proposed design. 🙂
We are hiring again! We are looking for a Manager of Operations and Administration (part-time/flex). The position is 15-20 hours a week and information is attached. Email resume and cover letter to Gwen: gwen.healeyakearok@qhrc.ca.
Qujanaq Nuuk! We had a great weekend in Nuuk presenting at the NunaMed conference, where Ceporah turned everyone into animals in icebreaker activities during her presentation on Makimautiksat; Taha presented on the te(a)ch program and computer literacy; Gwen gave a keynote address on Qaujigiartiit; Del shared her child and youth programs in Rankin Inlet; and our friends at Aqqiumavvik (Kukik) and Ilitaqsiniq (Jesse) shared their phenomenal community and land-based programs as part of a panel on youth initiatives. This opportunity to collaborate with colleagues in Kalaallit Nunaat is so important. We need direct flights to Nuuk to keep it going!
We are very honoured to be invited to the Arctic Council’s SDWG conference to talk about youth engagement & leadership in research at our centre. Did you know that we have 2 dedicated seats for youth/students on our board of directors, making up 30%.
If you are keeping track - we now have 2(!!) positions open! Apply to be part of our friendly and collaborative team in Iqaluit today. 1) Program Evaluator/Data Analyst and 2) Research Associate: Public Health & Climate Change. Email gwen.healeyakearok@qhrc.ca.
