Education and training in the Arctic: Identifying education and training needs for Arctic Indigenous Peoples
Abstract
The University of the Arctic and Arctic Council Indigenous Peoples’ Secretariat organized a panel to discuss education and training needs for Arctic Indigenous Peoples during the UArctic Congress 2018 in Oulu, Finland on 5 September 2018. The panelists represented each of the Arctic Council Indigenous Peoples’ organizations – also known as Permanent Participants – and addressed these questions:
• How is Arctic education shaping the life of local communities now and in the future?
• How will traditional knowledge be a part of the academic world?
• How will vocational education meet higher education in the Arctic?
• In what capacity can UArctic help to offer or promote Indigenous degree programs?
