CONTEMPORARY ISSUES

Over the past 30 years Inuit in Canada have created a variety of regional, national and international organizations, all with the goal of regaining control of their affairs and improving Inuit society. Students study the history and role of organizations such as ITK, ICC, ICI, Pauktuutit,NTI , ICSL and IBC.They also look at some of the specific issues these organizations have dealt with, including the standardization of Inuktitut, broadcasting and communications, animal rights, environmental issues, whaling and other current circumpolar issues. Students also study the structure and workings of the new Nunavut Government in this course.


ITK president Jose Kusugak gives a
presentation to NS students in 2003.
