The Nunatsiavut component of the QNIHS is a collaborate effort between the Nunatsiavut Government and Labrador-Grenfell Health. This branch of the survey is being guided by a regional steering committee that includes frontline health workers, youth, Elders, community members, and representatives from various Nunatsiavut Government Departments. This steering committee provides important guidance to the team at DHSD that is working to implement the survey program. They ensure that all the decisions for the survey are in the best interest of Nunatisavut beneficiaries. Our regional content committee ensures that our survey will cover all the health topics that are important to Inuit, in a way that respects Inuit culture and values. Data collection is set to begin in fall 2021, with a dedicated team of researchers travelling to all of the communities within the Inuit Land Claim Area to conduct the survey.
