Includes bibliographical references (p. 37-38). This report summarizes results from an Arctic Council Canadian Chairmanship initiative to promote mental wellness and resilience in circumpolar communities. Sponsored by the Arctic Council’s Sustainable Development Working Group, and funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, two international research teams identified promising practices through a literature review, six intervention case studies and a community consultation process in 2014. These results were published in the report Sharing Hope: Circumpolar Perspectives on Promising Practices for Promoting Mental Wellness and Resilience. Then, in March 2015, over 100 youth, researchers, representatives from Arctic Council Member States and Permanent Participants, Indigenous organizations and circumpolar communities met in Iqaluit, Nunavut to discuss the research findings and further share knowledge and insights into what is needed and what is working to promote mental wellness and prevent suicide in the circumpolar region. The thoughtful presentations, personal stories and rich discussion at the 2 ½ day Circumpolar Mental Wellness Symposium led to the following key principles and lessons for moving forward. gccst Mental health gccst Aboriginal peoples gccst Northern Canada gccst Conferences Canadian Institutes of Health Research.
