Students on Ice is an award-winning program dedicated to giving youth<br />

from across Canada and around the world powerful educational experiences<br />

in both the Polar Regions. The two-week long expeditions aboard<br />

the Cruise North vessel include shore landings, interpretive hikes, community<br />

visits, Zodiac trips, and ship-based exploration.<br />

The mandate of Students on Ice is to educate, motivate and inspire<br />

the next generation of leaders by connecting them to nature, and, in<br />

doing so, give these youth a greater understanding and respect for<br />

the planet.<br />

<strong>Makivik</strong>, Cruise North Expeditions and First Air began their partnership<br />

with the Students on Ice organization when six young Inuit from<br />

Nunavik participated in the Arctic 2007 expedition. Since this expedition<br />

<strong>Makivik</strong> has supported six to seven students every summer to participate<br />

in the Arctic expeditions and three students per year to take part<br />

in the ever so popular Antarctica expeditions during the winter. Cruise<br />

North provides its ship at a discounted rate for their exclusive use and<br />

sees great value in the Students on Ice mission, which is consistent with<br />

Cruise North’s own goal of developing tourism in the region with a sustainable<br />

and respectful approach and teaching the world about the North<br />

in a responsible way. Meanwhile, First Air provides 20 return tickets each
