15. Modern Indigenous Rights Movements
Greenlandic Inuit are actively shaping regional, national, and international policies by advocating for indigenous rights and sustainable futures. Najannguaq Hegelund, a prominent activist, co-founded Sila 360 in 2023 to support Inuit women who lost custody of their children due to culturally biased assessments. Additionally, a cultural revival is underway, with many Greenlanders embracing pre-Christian Inuit traditions, reclaiming their ancestral roots, and challenging centuries of colonial and religious suppression (lemonde.fr).
