Sivunitsatinnut ilinniapunga (For our future, I go to school)
We are students from Tukisiniarvik School in Akulivik, Nunavik. We would like to share with you our perspectives on archaeology, as well as our community and our environment. Through this project, we have trained in archaeological research and participated in the preservation and promotion of our cultural heritage; we have also been introduced to some options in post-secondary studies and employment opportunities in the field of heritage preservation.
The adventure began with the participation of 12 of us in Avataq’s archaeological field school, held on Qikirtajuaq Island during summer 2013. During the field school, we photographically recorded the archaeological activity. With the help of our teachers and inclusion of more students during the school year, we expanded this project to also record our community and surrounding environment. We have chosen photos that illustrate these subjects.
We hope you enjoy this exhibit!
