Kujichagulia (pronounced koo-gee-cha-goo-LEE-ah) is the second of the seven principles of Kwanzaa, and means self-determination. Each year, 30 African Nova Scotian students in grades 9, 10, and 11 (ages 14 – 18) are invited to gather for the event.
The camp’s objectives are:
- to motivate African Nova Scotian learners to attend university/college through positive exposure and participation in university campus life;
- to reflect and provide education from an Africentric perspective;
- to demonstrate the possibility of combining sports, technology, culture and academics in one’s life;
- to stimulate consideration of future employment/career options;
- to provide opportunities to interact with other African Nova Scotian learners and with African Nova Scotian role models
