The Centre for Aboriginal Culture and Education (CACE) is located within Carlton University in Ontario. The centre is working closely with post-secondary aboriginal students, communities, and recruitment officers in an effort to retain and even increase the number of aboriginal students and faculty.
I chose to share this link as it directly supports the concerns raised about the new Inuit curriculum being delivered by non-Inuit people in the absence of enough Inuit descent teachers. Although CACE is working primarily with the Algonquin people, it provides an example of how post secondary institutions are able to help bridge this gap.
Another link of interest on the same site is for the “Faculty with Research Interest in Aboriginal Issues”. This kicks off with videos of professors from the University promoting the importance of Indigenous studies as well as some current research projects underway. For people considering further pursuit within this realm, this faculty could be an excellent resource.
