Public Service Announcement
Kivalliq Employment and Training Forum

The Kivalliq Employment and Training Action Plan working group is hosting a forum in Rankin Inlet from October 3 to 5, 2023. This event will focus on Inuit employment and entrepreneurship within the Kivalliq region, with the outcomes helping to share a new Kivalliq Employment and Training Action Plan.  

As part of this initiative, we invite Kivalliq youth in grades 10-12 to participate as representatives, where they can voice their experiences on topics such as:

• Easing the process for youth to secure and maintain quality jobs.
• Identifying necessary tools, training, and supports for youth employment.
• Exploring barriers to youth entering the workforce.

Chaperones are also needed for this event and are encouraged to apply.

To apply as a youth representative or chaperone, please submit a completed application to KivalliqCDO@gov.nu.ca. 

Application Deadline: September 15, 2023.
