The Indigenous Youth Futures Partnership is made up of a multi-disciplinary team of Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers working together with First Nations youth, educators, health, social, legal, and family services, and community leaders in the Sioux Lookout region in Northwestern Ontario.
Our hope is to facilitate an environment in which First Nations youth can not only flourish in their communities, but become leaders and agents of change.

Our Mission
The Indigenous Youth Futures Partnership brings together tools and approaches from both Indigenous knowledge and Western science, to work with communities to support their vision for the future, and to co-create pathways to foster youth resilience and wellness.
Our Approach
We know there is no single way forward, so working in a multi-faceted manner is key to our approach. We incorporate knowledge from communities, research, and the youth themselves on our collaborative journey to create an environment in which youth can flourish and prosper.
