Directors from across ISR gather for state of the union Directors from every Inuvialuit Settlement Region community corporation united for a week of discussions in Inuvik this February.

It was a chance for community leaders to catch up with each other and devise better ways they can serve their people’s needs. For some, such as Patrick “Dang” Gruben, chair of the Inuvialuit Development Corporation, it was one of many meetings about a similar subject. For others, such as Chukita Gruben, a director with the Tuktoyaktuk Community Corporation, it was an early foray into politics. We collected thoughts from the above two about their perspectives on what’s needed in the ISR.
