Openness and accountability are vital principles of the Nunatsiavut Government. The Communications division is responsible for ensuring that all Beneficiaries of the Labrador Inuit Land Claims Agreement and the broader public are informed about the Nunatsiavut Government’s affairs and programs in a timely and effective manner.
The division also includes a team of Community Liaison Officers (CLO) who act as a bridge between Labrador Inuit and the Nunatsiavut Government. CLOs work at the community level, conveying information between the communications division and Beneficiaries, coordinating community meetings, organizing elections services, and assisting Beneficiaries with information requests.
Through the Sananguativut Visual Design Center, the Communications division produces a variety of bilingual (Inuttitut and English) materials in support of our communications objectives, including the Nunatsiavut Government’s Annual Report.
The Communications division is also responsible for issuing all press releases on behalf of the Nunatsiavut Government, maintaining ongoing relations with media agencies, coordinating news conferences, and the maintenance of the government website.
