The coasts of the Canadian Arctic are essential to Inuit communities, providing food security and serving as cultural spaces and transportation routes. However, coastal environments are increasingly threatened by climate change, including permafrost thaw, sea level rise, and storm events. These risks vary by region, which complicates adaptation strategies, and despite some progress, obstacles remain such as a lack of reliable high-resolution data and research results that can be directly used by decision-makers. In addition, local monitoring and the integration of Indigenous knowledge and Western science are crucial to strengthening community resilience, highlighting the need for community-centered approaches to defining adaptation pathways. ​
