November 4, 2011The Counselling Foundation of Canada, CERIC and Ashoka Changemakers are pleased to announce a collaborative initiative to support Aboriginal learning and improved outcomes for First Nations, Métis and Inuit learners in Canada. We invite you to participate!
Maybe you have a dream about wilderness skills training, or you have come up with a new approach to early childhood learning; perhaps you have designed a distance mentoring program, or have a new way to bring music to your school, or developed an approach to career and workplace training tailored for Aboriginal people.
As long as your focus is learning, inside or outside the classroom, we want to hear about it! Entries to the Changemakers Initiative Inspiring Approaches to First Nations, Métis and Inuit Learning can come from individuals, groups or organizations from Canada and around the world. All of the entries will be posted online, so that everyone can learn about these great ideas.
By entering your idea or project in the online Changemakers contest, you can win one or two of the more than 30 awards ranging from $500 to $5,000.
