Shaping 2SLGBTQ+ Knowledge in the Northwest Territories

A project with the Northern Mosaic Network to develop community-informed workshops and educational materials about LGBTQIPA+ communities in the Northwests Territories

About the project

A project we inherited from our predecessor, Jacq Brasseur ConsultingShaping 2SLGBTQ+ Knowledge in the Northwest Territories was a Government of Canada funded project for the Northern Mosaic Network (NMN).

NMN worked on redeveloping their educational materials used to teach about 2SLGBTQIPA+ communities across the Northwest Territories.

To support them in this work, they hired us to develop this curriculum with consultation from people in the North.

Discussion groups & interviews took place back in June and July 2021, we hosted a survey throughout the month of August 2021, and in December 2021, we filmed documentary style video to create short capsules to include in educational materials. In January and February 2022, we hosted pilot workshops of all the content we developed. In July 2022, we hosted a Train the Trainer program in Yellowknife that brought facilitators from across the territory to learn how to teach this content.
