"This paper identifies eleven non-medical determinants of health as having a significant influence on Inuit health, including: acculturation, productivity, income distribution, housing, education, food security, health care services, quality of early life, addictions, social safety nets and the environment. Positive action in any one of these areas would result in improvement in Inuit health, but should be addressed holistically. Self-determination is a key to creating enduring, well-
integrated, economic, social and health programs that spawn lasting changes."
