Elders & Knowledge Keepers

OUR TRADITIONAL 
KNOWLEDGE KEEPERS

Kenjgewin Teg believes that education includes building a strong foundation for personal resilience and pride in wholistic learning and development.
For this reason, Kenjgewin Teg strives to include Traditional Anishinabek Knowledge Holders as part of our core sources of teaching Mino Bmaadziwin, as well as being part of our pedagogical strategy in transmitting knowledge for learning in a respectful way. As its core source of knowledge and guidance, Kenjgewin Teg is pleased to have knowledge holders that we look to for guidance and assistance in many areas in our organizational structure and governance. While our current Traditional Knowledge Keepers help strengthen the core of our organization by sharing their unique gifts, we also utilize many other Traditional Knowledge Keepers in the direct delivery of programs.  In our philosophy of Anishinabek education, we believe that learning is a lifelong journey. Defining and implementing our educational purpose at Kenjgewin Teg plays a significant role in Bmaadziwin for our students, community and Nation; for Kenjgewin Teg, this means that we continuously strive to nurture confident, resilient learners who are culturally grounded in personal identity and who are active participants engaged in their own learning with high aspirations in becoming a good citizen of Mother Earth…living a good life. We also believe strongly that Anishinabek cultural inclusiveness must exist throughout a student’s educational experience with us. At Kenjgewin Teg, learning must occur in an environment where our organizational values are fostered and demonstrated amongst and within our lifelong learning community. Our organizational values are very important to us, and it is our goal to ensure teachers, faculty members, staff and our Traditional Knowledge Holders are student centred and have only the best interests of student success at heart. We believe emotional, spiritual, intellectual, and social development is critical to the educational and learning experience for each and every student that chooses to learn at Kenjgewin Teg…this balanced learning philosophy will nurture students – and will help make Kenjgewin Teg students realize their limitless potential!
