THE VANISHING INUIT

We believe that preserving culture encourages others to experience it. And that experience allows humanity to recognize what makes us all human.

​Among the problems the Inuit face is permafrost melting, which has destroyed the foundations of houses, eroded the seashore and forced people to move inland. As Inuit families were forced into permanent settlements, overcrowding became a serious concern by the mid-70s. And while a number of housing initiatives have been implemented by different agencies, housing problems worsened overtime.
