International Inuit Day
November 7
Every year, November 7, marks International Inuit Day (Inuktitut: ᐃᓄᐃᑦ ᐅᑉᓗᐊᓂ, romanized: Inuit Upluani). It’s also known as International Circumpolar Inuit Day because it was developed in 2016, by the Inuit Circumpolar Council (ICC), an Indigenous Peoples’ Organization, founded in 1977 to promote the unity of 180,000 Inuit from Alaska (USA), Canada, Greenland, and Chukotka (Russia). It’s also a day to celebrate and amplify Inuit voices.
