Congratulations to Canada’s latest law school graduates at Akitsiraq Law School in Nunavut! The partnership between the University of Victoria, Akitsiraq Law School Society and Nunavut Arctic College has produced its first graduating class, awarding UVic Law Degrees to 11 students. The program has been operating for three years and has allowed Inuit students to receive a legal education in their own social and cultural environment. These law school graduates will be vital to building Nunavut’s self-governing capacity and to enhancing the educational and economic environment of Nunavut where the average high-school graduation rate is about 22 per cent.
