NTI appoints Navarana Beveridge as chief executive officer, starting Oct. 13
Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated says Navarana Beveridge has been appointed its new chief executive officer after a competitive selection process. Her start date is Oct. 13, 2026, so the appointment has been announced but she has not yet begun the role.
What happened
NTI announced the appointment on Oct. 5. It says Beveridge has about 20 years of experience with Inuit organizations in Nunavut, including executive and senior-management work with the Qikiqtani Inuit Association. NTI says her past work includes Inuit housing governance, the Pond Inlet Research Training Centre and negotiations for the Mary River Project Inuit Impact and Benefit Agreement.
Why it matters
The CEO leads the day-to-day administration of Nunavut’s Inuit birthright organization. The change comes as NTI continues work affecting housing, social policy, Inuit rights and major development files across Nunavut.
What happens next
Beveridge is scheduled to begin on Oct. 13, 2026. NTI has not published further details about transition arrangements or initial priorities under her leadership.
Important details
This is an appointment announcement, not a new policy, funding decision or program. NTI says Beveridge was raised in Greenland, has lived in Nunavut for 30 years, and speaks Kalaallisut, Danish, English and Inuktitut.
