A group of 10 people who have ties to Bathurst Inlet travelled there recently to collect oral history stories, traditional knowledge, myths, legends, and Inuinnaqtun phrases as part of a five-year project to preserve traditional knowledge.

The program aims to teach youth empowerment, including the importance of identity. 'If we don't know our identity and who we are then someone else will give an identity for us and oftentimes that identity is based on lies,' says the workshop's instructor.
