Award of Excellence
Casper Dalhoff Corbis
"Exiled Inuits"


7 of 10

David is working out at city hall. By doing this he tries to motivate the youngsters to do sports and prevent them from fighting on the streets. Today less than half of these people of Qaanaaq live off hunting and fishing. Losing their tribal identity, they live on the Danish social security. Rates of unemployment, malnutrition, alcoholism, violence and suicide are high amongst this people facing extinction.
