Published purpose

The Inuksiutit project (IFSNu) directly addresses food sovereignty issues in Inuit Nunangat communities. IFSNu brings together Inuit and non-Inuit academics, community-based researchers, Inuit knowledge holders, Elders and young people with expertise in: country food and Inuit nutrition, public health and epidemiology, social anthropology, Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, participatory/Indigenous methodologies, curatorial practice, and Inuit visual and performing arts. We will address questions such as: In what ways do Inuit food stories renew social bonds with ancestors, uphold community customs, and foster healthy eating practices to support community health?
