Description (French)
Ce projet appuiera les archives du Inuit Circumpolar Council Canada pour préserver, gérer et promouvoir le patrimoine documentaire inuit et le savoir inuit en lien avec la défense des intérêts et le leadership à l’échelle internationale. Le projet est axé sur trois domaines prioritaires : terminer le traitement complet des archives pour les principaux groupes de dossiers du Conseil circumpolaire inuit du Canada; soutenir les logiciels et systèmes propres aux archives afin d’améliorer l’accès public grâce à un système de recherche bilingue (inuktitut et inuktut qaliujaaqpait) base de données en ligne; et entreprendre des activités de sensibilisation, d’engagement et de mobilisation des connaissances lors de la 15e assemblée générale du Conseil circumpolaire inuit à Iqaluit en 2026. Ces efforts amélioreront l’accès au patrimoine documentaire inuit, renforceront l’utilisation et la valeur des documents d’archives et augmenteront la capacité de ICC Canada à gérer les collections et à partager l’information dans tout l’Arctique.
