Indigenous youth across Ontario are stepping into leadership in powerful ways. Learn how ISWO is helping youth build the skills and their voice to become leaders in their communities.
Indigenous youth across Ontario are stepping into leadership in powerful ways, grounded in community, culture, and confidence. Through Indigenous Sport & Wellness Ontario’s (ISWO) Standing Bear program, youth build the skills and their voice to become leaders and positive influences in their communities.
Now, Standing Bear is entering a new chapter with the launch of The Learning Den, a new online platform and tool designed to strengthen and expand Indigenous youth leadership development.
Built with accessibility in mind, The Learning Den is helping to remove geographic barriers, support facilitators, and create more consistent opportunities for youth, especially those in northern and remote communities.
