Join us for an exciting online event where Inuk Elder Martha Peet will talk about Inuit Niqiit, “Inuit foods”, commonly consumed original foods for Inuit Peoples. Original foods are plants or animals that are indigenous to the land, meaning they existed naturally on the land before settlers arrived. Food in the form of these plants or animals is a gift; although diets have changed significantly, the benefits of eating original foods remain the same. Colonization, forced relocations, and residential schools have had substantial negative impacts on Inuit land bases, territories, and connections to the land. Regular harvesting and consumption of original foods has been largely replaced with a commercial supply of western, processed, non-nutritive foods. Discover the cultural significance of food in Inuit communities.
