Identity, Culture, and Transmission

In a world of accelerating change, how can we preserve our roots and culture without becoming closed off, while aiming for controlled development based on knowledge? North Greenlanders have faced—and continue to face—these challenges regarding transmission, learning, and intergenerational ties amidst adversity.

The ability of Greenlandic people to maintain, transmit, and develop knowledge and culture through centuries of disruption opens discussions on the nature of knowledge and its link to practice. These questions are highly relevant to:

Education Stakeholders reflecting on new educational models.

Public and Non-profit Actors involved in culture (extending far beyond heritage issues).

Business Leaders focused on knowledge sharing, transmission, and corporate culture.

Organizations (private, non-profit, or political) working on intergenerational challenges.

Participants will shape the direction of these discussions based on their specific goals.
