About

Welcome to our hub for everything iKaluk | Arctic char in Nunasiavut! Arctic char are deeply important to Labrador Inuit, serving as both a cultural keystone species and a vital food source. While a growing body of research and data exists on Nunatsiavut's Arctic char, much of it is scattered across disciplines and difficult to access. Our goal is to bring those materials into a single, user-friendly knowledge hub, to provide a strong foundation for future research, community use and management efforts.
