Growing Up Healthy: A resource booklet about providing for a healthy family based on Inunnguiniq teachings provides supports to Inuit parents and families by sharing knowledge and activities of Inuit in the past to set an example for healthy living today. Harvesting food, physical activity, strength and endurance, and positive well-being are, then and now, required in order to live successfully.
The National Collaborating Centre for Indigenous Health (NCCIH) worked in partnership with the Aqqiumavvik Society to develop this booklet as well as three other booklets in the series.
The booklets are available for download in Inuktitut (see below), in English, and in French from both the Aqqiumavvik Society and NCCIH websites. They are also as available for hard copy order from the NCCIH at no charge.
