There are many amazing tourism and cultural
preservation projects being implemented across Canada in indigenous
communities, but what takes a project to another level is having a passionate
hard-working individual to see the project continue to grow.
David Kattegatsiak is the Community
Economic Development Officer for the Hamlet of Chesterfield Inlet in Nunavut.
David spearheaded the My Community App Project in the winter of 2014, the site
can be found at http://chesterfieldinletstories.ca.
This interactive website celebrates sharing stories of Inuit culture from the
voices of elders and youth on their rich history, the land, and the people
within their territory. The stories are a combination of videos, images and
written text that have been collected throughout the years.
When the project was completed, it didn’t
stop there. David continues to add new content and updates to the site on a
regular basis. His passion to share his community’s stories and his drive to
continue to bring this legacy project to life is inspiring. We thoroughly
enjoyed working with David on this project and constantly look forward to
seeing new stories being shared!
Projects such as the My Community App
project help to instill community pride and celebrate the culture and stories
of the community for generations to come! If you are interested in hearing more
