preservation of traditional knowledge and the oral tradition
is important both to Inuit identity

on by the elders is not lost and that it is incorporated
into new structures to be set up by the Nunavut government.

Inuit were done by non-Inuit and many misrepresentations

in the Interviewing Inuit Elders series were created from
an Inuit perspective that is sensitive to Inuit culture
and
values."
