Isp_kh_inuvikconsultation_june2011_9Since our last community consultation in February, our team has been working on a protoype of the Inuvialuit Living History website. This week Mervin Joe, Cathy Cockney, and Kate Hennessy visited with students and teachers at Samuel Hearne Senior Secondary School to show them the site and ask for feedback on how to improve the website for use in the school. They also visited with the Inuvialuit Communications Society and Parks Canada, Inuvik, to show them the website and discuss how it could be used in educational programs. Finally, Mervin, Cathy and Kate presented the project at the Inuvialuit Day Celebration. Inuvialuit Day celebrates the anniversary of the signing of the Inuvialuit Final Agreement, and was full of delicious food, drum dancing, and lots of happy faces! They had many good conversations with community members and a lot of good feedback for the completion of the website. The whole team is excited about the next phase of the website work and looks forward to launching the official site at www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca at the end of the summer.
