Weengushk Film Institute students ‘journey for knowledge’ takes them across the country to experience new ceremonies and learn from other Indigenous youth
Youth participants of the Journey for Knowledge program at Manitoulin Island's Weengushk Film Institute embarked on a four-week cultural exchange trip across Canada and the US on June 1, with hopes of learning these other cultures, participating in ceremonies and exchanging ideas and experiences with other youth.
Starting from M'Chigeeng First Nation on Ontario's Manitoulin Island, seven youth, two knowledge keepers and an elder began an extended road trip westward to Alert Bay on British Columbia's Pacific Coast, where they'll visit with Namgis First Nations on Cormorant Island with many stops at nations across the country.
There they will “exchange life experiences with youth from these communities, participate in ceremonies and learn the stories and histories of other cultures,” states the release.
