Wii Chiiwaakanak Learning Centre

Welcome

Wii Chiiwaakanak Learning Centre, located on Ellice Avenue.

The Wii Chiiwaakanak Learning Centre is a community outreach program facilitated by the University of Winnipeg. Our mandate is to provide educational opportunities and services to the local community in support of capacity building within Winnipeg’s inner city.

In addition to our local outreach services and educational programming, we also strive to build strong partnerships with Indigenous communities throughout the Province of Manitoba and beyond.

One of the key features of our Centre is the free and open access to our computer lab, community spaces, and individual supports provided to constituents of the Centre.

Chantelle Awad appreciates the services offered at Wii Chiiwaakanak.

“I live in this neighbourhood and have been coming here for about 5 years. It is very convenient for me to have access to a computer and access to the Internet. I am on a disability pension and don’t have the financial resources to have my own computer at home. The atmosphere and staff here are good. I am a survivor of residential school, and so when the Elder spoke here about residential schools I came to listen. It was really beneficial to me.”
