The NRI is pleased to partner once again with Actua Science, Canada's leading STEM outreach organization, to deliver a science education camp for Iqaluit youth aged 7 to 12, from July 21-25! Camp Qupanuaq offers young Iqalungmiut a dynamic, hands-on learning experience that blends science, technology, engineering, and math with community-based knowledge and mentorship. Through interactive activities like building circuits, exploring water chemistry, microbiology, and optics, programming robots, and investigating AI, participants develop STEM skills while connecting them to real-world applications and career pathways. A central feature of the camp is the participant-led community map, which evolves throughout the week to highlight local STEM knowledge and culminates in a presentation to the community during an Open House.
Space in Camp Qupanuaq is extremely limited! Registration for the camp opens at 1:00pm on July 4, 2025. Please complete and submit your camp registration forms as soon as possible after 1:00pm on July 4 by e-mail to actua.science@arcticcollege.ca. Registration will be offered on a first come-first served basis to participants who provide completed and signed registration forms. Guardians of selected participants will receive an email confirmation from the NRI with additional details about the camp.
