Besides its role as a public relations<br />
tool for our corporation and its subsidiary<br />
companies, <strong>Makivik</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> is also<br />
a way to showcase the Inuit of Nunavik,<br />
who are truly the owners of this corporation.<br />
If you have a story idea or an event<br />
that you would like all of Nunavik to enjoy,<br />
please email us at magazine@makivik.org.<br />
This is just one way that <strong>Makivik</strong> works “to<br />
promote the welfare, advancement, and<br />
education of the Inuit” as stated in the<br />
corporate mandate.<br />
Beyond the updates provided in each<br />
<strong>Makivik</strong> Annual Report, the <strong>Makivik</strong> staff<br />
and <strong>Makivik</strong>’s subsidiary companies utilize<br />
this magazine to interpret to you, our readers, their challenges, efforts and<br />
achievements. For instance we have regular contributions from Air Inuit, First Air,<br />
our Legal Department, Research Department, Ottawa office and Nunavik<br />
Creations. <strong>Makivik</strong> staff and subsidiary employees are keenly aware of this<br />
opportunity to promote their good work and are eager to inform us about<br />
it as soon as they have interesting stories to be told so we may share them<br />
with you. Other Nunavik and Inuit organization such as Avataq, the Health<br />
Board, the School Board, KRG, ITK, FCNQ and ICC also collaborate on interesting<br />
activities that involve Nunavimmiut.<br />
If you happen to enjoy drawing, we invite you to send in your pictures.<br />
These days with the convenience of digital cameras and email, we continue<br />
to receive photos and appreciate it very much. Just be sure these photos<br />
are of the highest resolution that you can set your camera to.<br />
