Youth, Artists Celebrating Canadian Innovation Week #CIW24
This year, May 13-17, 2024 is Canadian Innovation Week! It’s one of our favourite weeks of the year, and we’re proud to be taking part.
Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2 (ZERO HUNGER) aims to: end hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture. Food insecurity, malnutrition and hunger are urgent global problems. They have significant negative impacts on the development potential and quality of life of people in many countries.
Under SDG 2, the Government of Canada is focusing on: ensuring that Canadians have access to sufficient, affordable and nutritious food and ensuring that Canadian agriculture is sustainable.

A new food sector entrepreneurship program is starting up this summer in Winnipeg, Manitoba. In the coming months, a small group of youth artists studying entrepreneurship with the non-profit organization Niriqatiginnga are designing, marketing and selling a special edition line of homemade jams for the fall and holiday season.
There’s a real need for enhancing data literacy and organizational capacity within Northern organizations and communities.
In today’s article, we are going to take a little journey into the world of advertising, marketing, outreach, and engagement.
Food security means consistent access to healthy food, while food insecurity results from factors like poverty and high food prices, disproportionately affecting Indigenous Peoples, racialized groups, individuals with disabilities, children, lone-parent families, and those with low incomes.
Beginning in 2013-2014, a collaborative project in Arviat, Nunavut aimed to explore social and cultural aspects of interventions resonating with participants, focusing on health determinants for Indigenous populations.
Despite historic progress achieved in 2020, Canada saw a sharp upswing in national child poverty rates.
As we melt into February, the momentum behind the “Establishing Niriqatiginnga: Towards a Framework for Northern Food Systems Innovation” project continues to grow
Starting this summer, we’re going to be using the arts to explore food security, creative entrepreneurship and implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
Niriqatiginnga means “come eat with me,” in Inuktitut. It is a Winnipeg-based non-profit organization that is exploring how to address northern food insecurity through arts-based and cultural entrepreneurship approaches.
