Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated appointed Navarana Beveridge as its new chief executive officer after what it describes as a competitive selection process. Her start date was Oct. 13, 2026, so the appointment is now in effect.

NTI says Beveridge has worked on Inuit housing governance, the Research Training Centre in Pond Inlet, and negotiations for the Mary River Project Inuit Impact and Benefit Agreement. She previously held executive and senior management roles with the Qikiqtani Inuit Association. Source↗

The chief executive officer manages the day-to-day administration of NTI, a territory-wide Inuit organization whose work includes implementing the Nunavut Agreement and advancing Inuit priorities with governments and other organizations. The announcement identifies Beveridge’s experience but does not set out a new work plan, policy direction, budget decision or service change.

NTI’s board meeting is scheduled for Oct. 19–20 and its annual general meeting for Oct. 21–22 in Kugluktuk. NTI has said both meetings will be open to the public, but the notice does not identify any CEO-related decisions or agenda items. Source↗

Appointment announced: Oct. 5, 2026.
Effective date: Oct. 13, 2026.
Status: appointment completed; no new policy agenda announced.

This is separate from the Oct. 15 Nunavut Partnership Committee announcement already in the Atiilu News Desk index.
