Agreement Number:
2021-0106
Agreement Value:
$58,800.00
Agreement Date:
May 21, 2020 - Mar 31, 2021
Description:
The Illaiqpik Project will be directed by the Inuvialuit Game Council (IGC) and administered by the Inuvialuit Traditional and Local Knowledge Coordinator at the Joint Secretariat.
The IGC uses Inuvialuit traditional knowledge (in the form of oral histories, audio interviews, transcriptions, maps and reports) for much of its decision making, and currently there is little capacity to store and organize the existing information.
The purpose of this project is to collect and organize Inuvialuit-owned traditional knowledge interviews and oral histories, and build an in-house repository for the various Inuvialuit groups/co-management boards to access for decision making, and to protect Inuvialuit cultural heritage.
