Traveling and harvesting on the land and sea is of vital importance to Indigenous communities in the Canadian Arctic and subarctic, with links to food security, cultural identity, and wellbeing. A new study by the Climate Change Adaptation Research Group at Ï㽶ÊÓƵ however, finds that economic transitions, social shifts, and climate change are dramatically affecting the safety of Inuit during these activities.
