About us


Pirurvik is an Inuit-owned institute of Inuktut higher learning based in Nunavut’s capital, Iqaluit. Since 2004, we have been dedicated to building new programs focused entirely on Inuit language, culture and wellbeing.

Like many creative ventures, Pirurvik began with a vision and a dream.

The dream involved the establishment of a new kind of centre for Inuit –  a holistic space where Inuit language, cultural expression and wellbeing would be fully integrated.
