Our mission is to scout, record, and document disappearing sea ice in the Arctic. We create opportunities for Indigenous and non-Indigenous women to gain leadership skills and field experience in Exploration and the Arts & Sciences. Together, these women create planet-wide ripple effects.

Combining Traditional Knowledge and Scientific Research to mitigate the impacts of societal change and climate change in the Arctic

Our vision is to foster a circumpolar network of Indigenous and non-Indigenous women leaders who will shape the future of the Arctic and our planet. 

We envision equity for women, and their inclusion in the development of circumpolar policies on economic prosperity, science and technology, human rights, food security, and strategies to mitigate the impacts of societal change and climate change in a warming Arctic.

Further, we envision a world where Indigenous and northern peoples collaborate to build vibrant, resilient, and sustainable communities in the Arctic.

We respect and honour the diverse histories and cultures of the Indigenous Nations upon whose lands and waters we live, traverse, and explore. We honour and respect those in our community of different races, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, classes, religions, ages, and the intersection of all of these. 

Providing a collegial and safe environment for exploration and discovery, we encourage a culture of inclusion for women and those who identify as women. We place human rights, dignity, and respect at the center of our conversations, listening, and learning.
