About Inuit Broadcasting Corporation

The Inuit Broadcasting Corporation is a non-profit charity organization that provides a window to the Arctic by producing award-winning television programming by Inuit for Inuit. IBC is indeed Nunavut’s public producer. Our programs are about one of the richest and most enduring cultures in our nation, the Inuit of Canada, in the language Inuit speak…Inuktitut. We produce shows about our kids, musicians, politicians, humour, issues, etc. No one else can make these shows for us! IBC has one production centre in Iqaluit, Nunavut, and one administrative office in Ottawa, Ontario. Its staff includes Inuit at every level of the production chain. All programming is conceived, designed, and produced by Inuit, for Inuit. IBC’s newest initiative is the establishment of the Inuit Film and Video Archives (IFVA). With assistance from many partners, IBC created the IFVA in 2015 to manage and house its videotape library and growing digital collection. The IFVA contains over 9,000 hours valued at approximately $60 million, dating back to the late 1970s and early 1980s. It chronicles, from the Inuit perspective, the division of the territories and the creation of crucial national Inuit organizations of Nunavut through the evolution of a new political, social and cultural environment. There are contributions from many elders who have since passed on and whose knowledge, wisdom, and practices are preserved in the collection. The library also contains entertainment material. As a non-profit, Inuit Broadcasting has created the Qview platform to promote archival videos. This allows Inuit people to enjoy and access their history and ancestors' voices.
