Speaker: Muckpaloo Ipeelie, MLT, CEO Urban Inuit Identity Project
As an urban Inuk Muckpaloo enjoyed learning about other cultures and contrasting her local First Nations perspective to her ancestral Inuit cultural lens. She wanted to continue to build Indigenous friendships, meaningful relationships and continue to be part of the community. Muckpaloo began teaching Inuit Culture to add to her community and advocate for better Inuit social supports.
Muckpaloo has continued to help bridge the gap in health care, Friendship, educational centers, social services and at the institutional level through her advocacy in teaching cultural uniqueness of Inuit, and empowering Inuit Identity.
The mission of the Urban Inuit Identity Project is to educate health care, social service and educational facilities about the cultural uniqueness of our Inuit to provide culturally safe care, and support that empowers Inuit identity so that our Inuit will be fairly represented in the fabric of Canada’s social safety nets. The Urban Inuit Identity Project’s purpose is to provide culturally relevant educational materials for health care workers and community builders who are involved in the circle of care of Inuit.
