Environmental Scan: Bullying and Violence Prevention Initiatives

In 2021, IIKELC began conducting an environmental scan of bullying and violence prevention initiatives across Nunavut and Inuit Nunangat to identify best practices (targeting all age groups and promoting self-acceptance and respect for diversity in culture, language, age, gender identity, and sexual orientation).  Additionally, we will work with stakeholders to explore and document bullying and violence prevention skills and knowledge rooted in Inuit culture.
