Sápmi in an uncertain world

06 February 2026 - Happy Sámi National Day 6 February! Laahkoeh biejjine! Vuorbbe biejvijn! Lihkku beivviin!
Superpowers with a strong interest in the Arctic and the High North dominate the news. It is about security policy, strategic positions, and access to resources. The power struggle over Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland) clearly shows how indigenous peoples' homelands are pawns in a global game.

Puanga: The Star That Guides Us. Celebrating Indigenous Language, Culture and Remembering Our Ancestors.

20 June 2026 - A star’s heliacal rising symbolises a new phase in our traditional calendar. It’s Puanga, known internationally as Rigel. Like Matariki (Pleiades) Puanga heralds the new year, especially for many Māori on the west coast of Aotearoa New Zealand. Across the Pacific, this time marks more than just the start of a seasonal cycle. It is a sacred space for reflection, renewal and remembrance. A time to honour those who have passed and to carry their legacies forward.
