The Walter and Duncan Gordon Foundation, with funding support from the J.M. Kaplan Fund, is pleased to offer the first year of the Arctic Voices Fellowships. The program will support 12 fellows spanning two years. The program is aimed at young Northerners, especially Aboriginal Northerners, aged 25-35, who want to build a strong North guided by Northerners.

Fellowship awards will include mentoring from Elders and other experts. Fellows will also have the opportunity to participate in four gatherings that will bring together other fellows and policy experts.
