We have pictures, too.
Also, you might be interested in some other results of Tungasuvvingat Inuit's 2005 urban Inuit conference, which was named National Urban Inuit One Voice. Two of the main findings as they relate to childhood obesity and health would be the finding to create an effective advocacy mechanism to achieve an equitable share of aboriginal funding to address the needs of Inuit living outside their land claim regions. It was identified that it is important to recognize that Inuit governments and organizations in the larger community must work together to see how we can advance Inuit well-being at the urban level. And we implore governments to ensure that funding and programs have Inuit-specific components and seek the participation of urban Inuit in the development of any upcoming initiatives.
The second finding is the need to promote healthy Inuit families through health and social supports, community and cultural development, and education in health, nutrition, child development, and parenting skills. Among these subcategories is traditional knowledge, which Ernie can speak to. The continuation of Inuit games, sports, and recreational activities is inherent to maintaining the physical health of this population.
The urban Inuit community, also keep in mind, is growing at increasing rates, with the number of children, families, and elderly who do not have access to recreation and sports activities correspondingly increasing as well. And again, resources and staff are needed to provide these sports and recreation activities.
