However, the specific connections between climate change and cultural change are understudied. This thesis explores the relationship between climatic shifts and culture in the Inuit community of Salluit, Quebec, Canada. Although residents of Salluit are acutely aware of climate change in their region and have developed causal explanations for the phenomenon, most Salluit residents do not characterize climate change as a threat to Inuit culture.

  • News Release
    NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION MAJOR BLITZ AGAINST INFECTIOUS DISEASES IN PUVIRNITUQ AND SALLUIT Kuujjuaq, June 11, 2018 – Health care workers and nurses took to the streets in Puvirnituq and Salluit as part of a major blitz against infectious diseases in both communities. Nunavik’s Health Committees, community health teams, the Inuulitsivik Center and the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services united their efforts to address two recent outbreaks in Nunavik. Teams composed of community health workers and nurses went door to door to offer screening for tuberculosis and sexually transmitted diseases. During three blitz interventions in Salluit and Puvirnituq the health teams also picked-up expired medication and surveyed the population on various health topics. Most houses and workplaces were visited as part of a vigorous community response to recent infectious disease outbreaks. "Can we mobilize the community to decrease the transmission of infections? I think the answer is yes. Not only that…but community mobilization is something Inuit know how to do. It's a great strength that we have," said Tommy Saviadjuk, a medical interpreter in Salluit. In Nunavik, when infections are detected, the teams in place have reached very high standards in terms of delivering treatment to individuals who are known to be contagious (For example: 94% for gonorrhea, 100% for syphilis, 100% for active TB). The challenge facing Nunavik communities is to rapidly detect infections when they first appear. This is particularly true of infections that most often have no or few symptoms, like syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia and tuberculosis in sleeping or early phases.
