Ambassadors

Mikana’s Ambassadors program aims to bring together and equip Indigenous Youth aged between 18 and 35 who wish to become actively involved in building bridges between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.

The circle of support values each person’s experience. Welcoming complex experiences related to the role of awareness-raising, opening a dialogue about possible solutions and reinforcing communication skills are all ways of supporting the Ambassadors’ commitment to educating groups of people.
