Spotlight on Gender Equity: A Podcast
Across Inuit Nunangat, hear powerful stories from Inuit women shaping conversations on gender, tradition, and food security across Canada. What does gender equity look like through the lived experiences of Inuit women?
In this podcast series from Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada, voices across Inuit Nunangat share their stories, grounded in culture, shaped by tradition, and evolving in today’s world. Through personal stories, this series explores how gender roles impact food security, knowledge sharing, and overall community well-being. For generations, Inuit women have played a central role in harvesting, preparing, and sharing food, guided by traditional teachings and a deep understanding of the land. These responsibilities are both practical and cultural, defining how knowledge was passed down and how communities sustained themselves.
Today, those roles are changing.
Through each episode, you’ll hear reflections on how gender expectations are shifting and what that means for Inuit families and communities. From the transfer of traditional skills like hunting and food preservation to the realities of modern life in the North, these conversations offer insight into both continuity and change.
At its core, this is a conversation about balance: between past and present, tradition and change, roles and responsibilities.
Most importantly, it’s an opportunity to listen and learn.
