Objective
The objective of the Nunivaat database is to establish a permanent, public and independent databank concerning
the socioeconomic situation of Nunavik.
Sources
Nunivaat data comes from Statistics Canada, the Institut de la statistique du Québec as well as various government
databanks. Nunivaat also comprises data from special studies, most of which were carried out under the Nunivaat program.
These data is accessible on the statistics page. The full studies are available on the publications page.
Design
The Nunivaat database is a portal that takes users directly to the table they are looking for, whether it is located on the
web site of a statistics agency or in the Nunivaat database. A map and a list of easy-to-use indicators help users do research.
Limitations
Nunivaat is updated periodically to contain, wherever possible, the most recent data available. While Nunivaat brings together
data on a wide range of socioeconomic realities of Nunavik, it does not cover all possible aspects. Nunivaat is not responsible
for the policies and practices of statistics agencies, the errors in the tables originating from these agencies, or the use made
of such tables. Users are asked to consult the methodology notes which are directly accessible via hyperlinks found in the
tables and on the metadata page.
