Opening of a new community justice centre for Nunavik in the Inuit community of Inukjuak to provide legal information, support and referral services to the general public, free of charge, to complement the services offered by other resources. Makivik Corporation has established the Nunavik Community Justice Center to give Inuit in Nunavik access to relevant legal information. The mission of the centre will include informing and supporting the Nunavimmiut about their rights and responsibilities. We hope that the information and support services provided by the centre in the area of notarial law, along with the travelling legal clinics, will improve access to justice for the Nunavik population. Makivik Corporation continues its work to promote justice by and for Inuit.”
