S01 E2 Trailer: The Beginnings of an Arctic Climate Leader

In Episode 2 of A Radical Act of Hope, we trace Siila’s childhood in the Arctic and explore the experiences that shaped her unique approach to leadership, from her earliest memories of traditional Inuit life, to her early career and important contribution to the Stockholm Convention, to meeting one of her heroes––Nelson Mandela.

We’ll also meet another Inuk leader who has inspired and strengthened Siila’s work––her long-time friend and fellow journeyist, Leena Evic. Leena is a visionary educator and the founder and president of the Pirurvik Centre in Iqaluit––an institute of Inuktut higher learning dedicated to the preservation and celebration of the Inuit culture and language.
