Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami

Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, formerly the Inuit Tapirisat of Canada, was founded at a meeting in Toronto in February 1971 by seven Inuit community leaders. The impetus to form a national Inuit organization evolved from shared concern among Inuit leaders about the status of land and resource ownership in Inuit Nunangat. Their work includes research, advocacy, public outreach and education on the issues affecting our population. They work closely with the four Inuit regions to present unified priorities in Ottawa.
