The Nunavut Aboriginal Diabetes Initiative has several focuses. From participation in an on-line nutrition course to prevention and promotion projects to training opportunities for medical professionals, the ADI program in Nunavut attempts to provide a range of services that centre around community-based projects.

Nunavut ADI projects occurred in 12 communities during fiscal year 2004-05: Cape Dorset, Clyde River, Iqaluit, Pangnirtung, , Grise Fjord, Kugluktuk, Arviat, , , Cambridge Bay, Gjoa Haven and Kugaaruk. Communities design and implemented their own diabetes prevention projects that met the specific needs of residents.

Territory-wide activities were successful this past year in providing training to medical professionals in the regions: holding a foot-care workshop for home and community care nurses; developing promotional material to encourage physical activity; partnering with an online nutrition course offered by McGill University; and conducting a Drop-the-Pop campaign for nutrition month to help students choose healthier beverages instead of pop. The number of schools participating in Drop the Pop 2005, nearly doubled with 27 of the 41 schools in Nunavut (66%) participating in 2005, compared to 14 schools in 2004.

A flipchart teaching tool was developed to help health professionals provide education on diabetes. During this year the continuation and expansion of community-based projects was made a priority as was the development of educational materials for diabetes patients (produced in all four languages of Nunavut), and the development of a strategic model for preventing and treating diabetes in Nunavut. Plans for future years include expanding human resources and increasing the access to dietician services, as well as participating in the development of a cross- regional diabetes cookbook for all Inuit in Canada.

The Nunavut Aboriginal Diabetes Initiative is guided by a territorial advisory committee comprised of representatives from the three regional Inuit associations, Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated, , regional representation from the Department of Health and Social Services, the regional and territorial nutritionists, and the ADI program coordinator.
