The world is looking to our homeland as a symbol of the planet’s changing climate. Our homeland has garnered both national and international attention for being one of the most drastically affected areas in the world.
We understand climate change as more than symbolic.
We have been adapting and responding to our changing climate and environment for years. No one has more at stake when it comes to addressing climate change issues than Inuit.
Inuit knowledge and leadership are necessary for successful climate action alongside the roles and responsibilities of the Canadian government and international agencies.
Collaborative working relationships between Inuit and outside partners are necessary for transformative climate action in Inuit Nunangat. Our climate strategy provides our road map for working together with partners to take action rooted in Inuit knowledge and governance systems.
