Future of Our Community Education Group Disscussions (LETE)

/in ,

 The Listuguj Education, Training & Employment Directorate is looking to hear from community members about the future of education for Listuguj. We want to hear from you about education planning for our community!

Why participate?

Through these engagements, we are aiming to better understand the needs and hopes for high school education, and education governance more broadly. We want to know the options for providing education that supports Mi’gmaq culture, language, worldviews – and importantly, students! This information will help us plan the future of education in our community.

During these group discussions, we hope you will share with us:

  • When you think about our youth’s future, and their identity as a Mi’gmaw person, what do you wish for them? What ways can a high school support that?
  • How can a high school best support culture, Mi’gmaw identity, language transmission, and revitalization while also ensuring academic success?
  • How can and should parents, caregivers and community members at large be involved in the governance of the Listuguj education system?

All who participate will receive a $50 gift card and a catered meal in recognition of your time and contributions.

How to participate?

Join us at one of the following focus groups sessions:

  • Saturday, April 9th at 12PM-2PM (lunch provided)

Listuguj Comprehensive Community Plan, 2015

LISTUGUJ, GESPE’GEWA’GI, MI’GMA’GI, MARCH 24, 2022 — The Listuguj Mi’gmaq Government (LMG) is excited to announce an investment of 1.3 million to build and develop the Listuguj Mi’gmaw Language & Cultural Community Center.

The Listuguj Mi’gmaw Language & Cultural Community Center, also known as the Turtle Lodge, is a community-driven project that seeks to provide a centralized public space for Mi’gmaw language and cultural resurgence in our community.

Through this project, we hope to be able to make language and culture more accessible to community members and complement existing language and culture programs our community has to offer” – Chief Darcy Gray

The LMG is a successful applicant to the Cultural Spaces in Indigenous Communities Program Funding and has been awarded 1.15 million from Crown-Indigenous Relations and is investing $150,000 in own-source revenue towards to project.
