About
Description
Makivik is an indigenous political organization that has been representing the Inuit of Nunavik since 1978. Their name, which means To Rise Up in Inuktitut, reflects their mandate to protect the rights, interests, and financial compensation provided by the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement. With a focus on building and developing the vibrant region of Nunavik, Makivik has played a pivotal role in establishing the distinct place and identity of the Inuit within Canada and Quebec.
Makivik has a wide-ranging mandate that includes owning and operating profitable businesses, generating jobs, improving housing conditions, promoting social-economic development, protecting the Inuit language and culture, and preserving the natural environment. They administer and invest compensation money payable to the Nunavik Inuit and work to relieve poverty, promote welfare, advance education, and preserve the Inuit way of life. Makivik and its subsidiary companies have a remarkable story to tell, showcasing the benefits of modern aboriginal treaties and land claim settlements.
