Summary

In recognition of the important role that education plays in economic, cultural, social, and political development of a people, and the critical education gaps faced by Inuit today, the delegates of the 2014 Inuit Circumpolar Council (ICC) General Assembly mandated the ICC Executive Council to hold an Inuit Education Summit prior to the next quadrennial ICC General Assembly in July 2018. At the conclusion of the three-day summit, ICC was asked to prepare this report to assist each country office of ICC to review the ideas generated and outcomes developed with Inuit educators and leaders from within their respective jurisdictions.
