Nunavut still seeking 10 Elders for Inuit knowledge advisory committee
Nunavut’s Culture and Heritage Department is seeking nominations for 10 members of the Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit Katimajiit, an Elders committee that advises the territorial government on policies, programs and services. Members would serve three-year terms, but the public notice does not give a nomination deadline or say whether members are paid. ᓇᑭᓐᖔᖅᓯᒪᓂᖏᑦ↗

The Department of Culture and Heritage posted the call on Sept. 10 and the notice remained available when checked Oct. 6. It asks people knowledgeable in Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit to submit a nomination form for one of 10 committee positions.
ᓱᒻᒪᑦ ᐱᒻᒪᕆᐅᒻᒪᖔᖅ
The committee provides advice intended to help shape Government of Nunavut policies, programs and services using Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit approaches. Members may also identify and record Inuit Maligangit for a government knowledge repository.

Interested people can request or use the nomination form identified in the government notice. The department has not published a closing date, selection timetable, appointment date, compensation details or fuller eligibility rules, so prospective nominees should contact the department promptly.
ᐱᒻᒪᕆᐅᔪᑦ ᖃᐅᔨᒪᔭᐅᒋᐊᓖᑦ
Appointments are for three years. The committee aims to meet at least three times a year, and cabinet or ministers may request additional advice. This is a call for nominations, not an appointment announcement or a policy decision.
