Nunavut

Purpose

This project addresses the Indigenous SAR priority by not only enhancing engagement with, and fostering inclusion of, Indigenous peoples, but goes above and beyond to provide capacity building, peer mentoring, and leadership training. Specifically, Inuit coordinators in the 3 project communities will be trained in satellite imagery interpretation, map development, meeting facilitation and project management, all transferable skills that support the National Search and Rescue Program and community development in general.
