“While Inuit women’s organization like Pauktuutit are now invited to some decision-making tables, most often Inuit women are denied a seat, and a vote at the same decision-making meetings,” Rose Cooper, Executive Director.
Pauktuutit is ensuring Inuit women’s voices are heard at the 2022 Arctic Circle Forum in Greenland.
Rosemary Cooper, Executive Director, and Lema Itjimaye, Manager of Social and Economic Development, are taking part in the Forum to highlight the key correlation of between climate, infrastructure, Inuit women’s political leadership, and their wellbeing.
Concrete action is environmental health is improved, climate vulnerability is reduced, and food insecurity and infrastructure gaps are narrowed.
