André Moreau
Fellow
André Moreau is a Canadian public servant and legal professional with a strong background in Arctic governance and a deep commitment to advancing legal and policy solutions for the Arctic region.
Professionally, André has served in key roles within the Government of Nunavut, including Director of Intergovernmental Relations and Circumpolar Affairs Advisor. In these capacities, he was an advocate for Nunavut, briefed senior officials – including the Premier of Nunavut – and worked on policy matters related to Arctic security, national and international Arctic cooperation, and improving infrastructure and services in the North. He represented Nunavut in both domestic and global forums such as the Arctic Security Working Group, the Arctic Council and the Arctic Circle Assembly, and played an active role in shaping Canada’s Arctic and Northern Policy Framework and Arctic Foreign Policy.
André’s experience living and working in northern and remote communities has given him a grounded and personal understanding of the challenges and opportunities in the North. While in Nunavut, André was actively engaged in the community by serving on the board of the Niqinik Nuatsivik Nunavut Food Bank and volunteering with the Civil Aviation Search and Rescue Association. He has also contributed to national and international public policy by participating in programs such as the Action Canada Public Policy Fellowship (2023–2024) and the U.S. Department of State’s International Visitor Leadership Program (2024), where he explored issues affecting Arctic and Indigenous communities and cross-border cooperation.
André holds both a B.C.L. and an LL.B. from McGill University, where he was elected valedictorian of his class in recognition of his leadership and involvement within the faculty, and is a member of the Law Society of Nunavut. Prior to his legal studies, André earned a B.A. in Arts and Business from the University of Waterloo, with a focus on speech communication, history and international studies.
In the fall of 2025, André will begin graduate studies at the University of Akureyri where he’ll pursue an LL.M. in Polar Law, further deepening his expertise and continuing his commitment to the legal and policy issues shaping the future of the Polar regions.
