Summary of the Initiative

Reclaiming the Whole Man is an Inuit-led initiative by the Pirurvik Centre to strengthen the resilience and wellbeing of Inuit men. It aims to rebuild the connections between today’s generation of Inuit men and the language, culture and environment that sustained countless generations that came before. The program creates opportunities for Inuit men to learn directly from Inuit instructors the knowledge and skills at the heart of the Inuit way of life. Learning takes place through a combination of classroom sessions and outdoor training.
