This spring, we will be undertaking a strategic planning session that will guide Qaggiavuut for the next 5 years. 

We are seeking nominations from Nunavummiut that come from a variety of experiences and backgrounds, including but not limited to any of the following or combination thereof: having previous board of director experience (all sectors), community development, education background.
