Description
Summary:Since 2014, the National Museum of Denmark has collaborated with theCanadian organisations Kitikmeot Heritage Society (Cambridge Bay, Nunavut)and Geomatics & Cartographic Research Centre at Carleton University to makematerials from the Inuinnait (Copper Inuit) area collected during the 5th ThuleExpedition (1921–1924) digitally available firstly to people in Cambridge Bay,and secondly to a wider public. The ambition is now to make the totality of the5th Thule Expedition material digitally available through the so-called Tumisiutproject,in order to integrate it into a wider framework of a new Nordic curatorialand research collaboration around Arctic and Sub-Arctic collections. Pivotalaspects of these collaborations are discussions on various domains of ownershiprights such as “world heritage”, “cultural rights”, and “copyright”. The initial stepshave recently been taken by the National Museum of Denmark and the Museumof Cultural History, University of Oslo.
