A Vision for Change

First Nations University of Canada’s (FNUniv) new Northern Campus in Prince Albert will empower Northern communities by educating the next generation of leaders. Rooted in Indigenous ways of knowing, it will transform education and inspire innovation across the North.

With guidance from Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and partners, we will:

• Create a learning space were Indigenous knowledge, land-based teachings, and ceremony support student success.
• Build a gathering place for nations to share stories, exchange knowledge, and break down barriers for future generations.
• Launch Science & Technology programs that blend Indigenous knowledge with modern advancements.
• Empower Northern Saskatchewan’s future by educating the next generation of skilled leaders
