In August 2010, the My Word: Storytelling and Digital Media Lab created and hosted a summer camp at the beautiful Double Mer cabins. This camp brought together youth and Elders from Nain, Hopedale, Postville, Makkovik and Rigolet for five days of storytelling, culture-sharing, hunting, fishing, crafts and traditional activities. During this camp, youth and Elders partnered together to make collaborative digital stories. Comprised of video clips, music, personal photographs from years gone by and newly-taken photographs at the camp, these stories stand as a testament to life in Nunatsiavut, then and now.

We invite you to view these stories, and share in the wisdom, life experiences, and history contained within each digital dialogue.

Funding for the camp was graciously provided by the Nunatsiavut Department of Health and Social Development.
