The Heritage Shore: Ittaq

A centre of specialty at Ilisaqsivik for research, multimedia, land-programming, and heritage, founded in 2005. Ittaq works with Elders, youth, local experts, and visiting professionals to mobilize knowledge, monitor the environment, and promote Inuit culture and language through research and media-based storytelling.

It holds national and international recognition and awards for photography, documentary filmmaking, and research. This shore is where Ilisaqsivik keeps its own atlas: the survey practice this whole site borrows.
