Jackson School of International Studies held at the University of Washington. I provided a presentation on the role of the Inuit in Canada in reframing climate change as a human rights issue.

You can see the beautiful little town of Ísafjörður on the peninsula to the left of my ski. See http://jsis.washington.edu/canada/courses/transporpolicies.shtml.
	*July 2011 - Canadian Splendors of Georgian Bay and the Great Lakes* cruise** I was honored to serve as the educational specialist on Canada for the Smithsonian during a 10-day Canadian Splendors of Georgian Bay and the Great Lakes cruise. I gave four lectures - Canada's Far North, Québec Separatism, Canada 101 and, The Inukshuk - to about 45 exceptional guests!
	February 2011 - Task Force on Arctic Sovereignty I cannot even begin to convey what a stunning group of students Vincent Gallucci and I worked with on the Task Force on Arctic Sovereignty. Twelve students from the U.W. and two students from Makivik Corporation - Lisa and Kitty - met in Ottawa for a week to interview numerous experts and to better understand issues in the Arctic today. The students were exceptional and presented the report they drafted to the U.S. Representative for the Arctic Council, Julie Gourley.
