What's PIUSIVUT?
In every episode, we will address a topic important to youths. Exploring eclectic areas, digging deep to find tools and tricks that listeners can use. Specifically, we will talk about our identity, as Inuit, our communities and our relationships. We will talk about many hot topics, including sex and alcohol, HIV and being gay and Inuk. As an Inuit youth, I want to hear what our own people have to say about things, and see what other youths think. We will also have input from people from all over Canada, and from you, listeners. Contact us via the CheckUpProject Facebook page. We want to hear what you have to say.
This podcast covers mature subject matters and may not be suitable for all audience.
Piusivut is financed by the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services. Thanks to our host, Louisa Yeates, to Twin Flames and The Beatrice Deer band for the music, Audio Z for mix and editing, 32 MARS for the production, Véronique Morin and Faye Legresley for content and coordination. Thanks to our guests, and the youths who participated in our discussions. Mostly, thanks to you, our listeners.

Piusivut - On the Land with George Kauki
Today, on your Piusivut, we will talk about the “on the land” program. Do you know that awesome emotion of feeling alive, surrounded by nature, your community and your culture? Listen to hear one of the founders of this program, George Kauki.
George was one of the coordinators of the On the Land program at the Regional Board of Health and Social Services here in Nunavik. The program focuses on using the land and Inuit culture practices to promote healing and wellbeing.
I really want to thank George - wow - I want to go on the land! The On the Land initiative is now being led by Alena Stevenson & Lukasi Tukkiapik.
