This article explores how fluctuations in weather alter the relationships between people, place, livelihoods, and culture, impacting mental wellness among Inuit living in Nunatsiavut. Findings from the study demonstrate the role that weather has in shaping mental wellness, which points to multiple pathways for action on climate adaptation policy and programming, and to culturally-specific and place-based investigations into mental health impacts of climate change.
