Project CREATeS is a project of the Sustainable Development Working Group (SDWG) of the Arctic Council. The SDWG co-leads on this project included the Inuit Circumpolar Council, Canada, Finland, Kingdom of Denmark, and Sweden. Youth, invited by Permanent Participants of the Arctic Council, were invited to engage in a dialogue about suicide prevention by telling their own stories, and were supported to make these stories into digital stories, or short films.
Local to Global (L2G) Project is the fourth iteration of a project focused on building circumpolar connections and collaborations – between youth, Indigenous Peoples, health practitioners, researchers, policy makers, and others – towards effective action that reduces suicide and fosters mental wellness.
