Inuit Health

Inuit health refers to the well-being of Indigenous peoples living in Arctic regions, influenced by unique environmental, cultural, and social factors. They often face health challenges like higher rates of respiratory and infectious diseases, mental health issues, and limited access to healthcare due to remote locations. Traditional practices, diet, and community support are vital to their holistic health. Addressing Inuit health requires culturally respectful approaches that consider environmental changes, social determinants, and the preservation of their cultural identity, aiming to improve overall health outcomes and quality of life for these communities.
