Kitaskīnaw  is  a Nehinawewin (Swampy-Cree)  word that translates as “Our Land”

Hello my name is Kato Carriere, proudly from Cumberland House Cree Nation, and I am the founder of Kitaskinaw Learning, a youth cultural enterprise that teaches language, land, and community.

Through workshops, speaking engagements, and land-based learning; Kitaskinaw Learning supports youth in building identity, reconnecting with culture, and carrying language forward.

Rooted in kisêwâtisiwin, kindness, we meet youth where they’re at.

Apparel helps carry language into everyday life, and net profits directly fund youth programming.

Kitaskīnaw Learning is committed to the revitalization of Indigenous languages within schools and communities, the return of Indigenous peoples to the lands and their lands to them; to past, present and future generations of learners.
