Qanuippitaa? survey completed in Pond Inlet, moving to more communities in August

Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. is collecting health information from Inuit across Nunavut.

The Qanuippitaa? National Inuit Health Survey is designed and the data collected is owned by Inuit. Representatives from the four land claim organizations across Inuit Nunangat, including NTI, are responsible for conducting the surveys in their areas.

The survey, which translates as How are we doing now?, aims improve the well-being of Nunavut Inuit by providing information that can influence government policies, said a July 18 news release from NTI.

It’s national in scope because Inuit in other parts of Canada are being surveyed but the Nunavut data will be owned and stored by NTI.
