For over forty years, the Association of Canadian Universities for Northern Studies (ACUNS) has been an indispensable organization for the advancement of northern scholarship. Established in 1978, ACUNS is a registered Canadian charitable organization, with volunteer representatives at member post-secondary institutions across the country. ACUNS administers awards for students enrolled in a college or university undergraduate, graduate, or post-graduate program that focuses on the northern context. With contributions from donors, ACUNS aims to contribute to the well-being of northern communities through the development of strong northern scholarship.
