View Award Description

Aleutian Pribilof Islands Association, Inc. - Qaqamiigux: Sustaining the Legacy of the Unangax Harvest - Qaqamiigux: Sustaining the legacy of the Unangax (Aleut) Harvest, will be centered on traditional Unangax knowledge and cultural practices related to food and subsistence in the Aleutian and Pribilof Islands region. In year four of the project, we will continue to support the traditional foods sessions at cultural camps throughout the region. During culture camps, and through the implantation of traditional food practices, intergenerational knowledge is passed down. Our project will document the intergenerational exchange related to traditional foods in order to aid in the preservation of traditional Unangax knowledge and practices. The footage collected from the region and at culture camps will be utilized to create a traditional foods video series. Footage from these videos will highlight traditional food practices in several of the communities throughout the region including Atka, Akutan, Sand Point, and Unalaska. The films also integrate the traditional language of the region, Unangam tunuu, and traditional Unangax values, such as helping others, sharing resources throughout the community, and caring for the land and the sea. To date, the project has produced four films which focus on the harvesting and preparation of chocolate lily, the butchering of reindeer, the seining for salmon and the preparation of boiled fish heads. In year four, upcoming films hope to highlight the preparation of octopus, the harvesting of medical plants, the preparation of eider duck, and the fileting of halibut. In addition to the films, future directions for the project in year four include the development of written field guides that will illustrate and outline a variety of traditional food information related to the hunting, harvesting and preparing of traditional foods. Similar to the videos, these field guides will also incorporate traditional knowledge, values and language of the Unangax people. The ultimate goal of this project is to promote health and wel lness through the use of traditional practices and to aid in the preservation of traditional Unangax knowledge through the development of sustainable resources that can be utilized throughout the region and for generations to come.
