Abstract
Inuvialuit have always created culture through our/their living and land-based practices. For us, making culture means doing, practicing, and sharing activities and songs and country food, on the land and in town, together with our families and communities. These layers of history are embedded in the landscape of Inuvialuit Nunangat, our homeland, and in the voices of Elders past and present speaking about their knowledges and experiences. In this paper, we describe how Inuvialuit communities are practicing our living traditions today and capturing them using digital methods to produce a new Inuvialuit Living History website that celebrates the past, present, and future of our communities.

Résumé
Les Inuvialuit ont toujours créé leur culture à travers nos/leurs pratiques de vie ancrées dans le territoire. Pour nous, « faire la culture » signifie réaliser, pratiquer et partager des activités, des chants et de la nourriture locale, dans la nature et dans les villages, ensemble avec nos familles et nos communautés. Ces niveaux d’histoire sont inscrits dans le paysage inuvialuit de langue nunangat, notre pays, et dans les voix des Aînés du passé et du présent qui parlent de leur savoir et de leur expérience. Dans cet article, nous décrivons la façon dont les communautés inuvialuit vivent en pratique encore aujourd’hui leurs traditions et les enregistrent au moyen de méthodes numériques pour élaborer un nouveau site Internet d’Histoire vivante des Inuvialuit qui rende hommage au passé, au présent et à l’avenir de nos communautés.
