Inuit birthing in the Qikiqtaaluk Region of Nunavut: A place-based inquiry of maternity care systems
Many Indigenous People in Northern and remote areas need to travel away from home for childbirth; however, their birthing traditions and practices are intimately tied to place. This qualitative research study characterized Inuit childbirth experiences and recommendations to enhance birthing supports in the Qikiqtaaluk Region of Nunavut in Inuit Nunangat, Canada. Birthing experiences were profoundly shaped by relationships and place attachment, and recommendations related to increased Inuit involvement in maternity care systems. Place attachment is an important determinant of Inuit maternal health and may also be for other Indigenous Peoples with intrinsically place-based livelihoods, knowledge systems, and identities.
