WWF Global Arctic Programme的动态

While both women and men hold knowledge vital to Inuit culture and tradition, leadership roles in Nunavut are often still held by men. Women leaders help ensure diverse perspectives in decision-making, enriching and strengthening environmental and cultural initiatives with a broader range of insights and experiences while serving as role models for future generations. With that in mind, it was especially impactful for a knowledge-sharing trip last spring to be led by three Inuit women. WWF-Canada staff joined members of Taloyoak Umaruliririgut Association (TUA) — the local hunters and trappers organization (HTO) for the community of Taloyoak representing TUA and the Aqviqtuuq IPCA project — on this knowledge-sharing trip. After the trip, WWF-Canada sat down with the three women leaders to learn more about their experience. We're highlighting WWF-Canada's story on this International Women's Day ??: https://lnkd.in/dsrDWsSF #InternationalWomensDay #Nunavut #Arctic #Canada
