This paper delves into an exploration of Greenlandic Inuit oral histories, collected over nearly two and a half centuries from 1735 to 1981, as a valuable repository of knowledge that offers insights into the intrinsic connection between landscape and embedded worldviews. These oral traditions, deeply rooted in the worldview of the Greenlandic Inuit communities, contain a wealth of ecological wisdom that has, over time, faded from the collective memory of the community into obscurity. The primary objective of this talk is to elucidate the diverse and profound ways in which Indigenous ecologies were safeguarded and transmitted through these narratives. By investigating the possibility of transferring this knowledge into the realm of architecture and urban planning in the Arctic, modern Greenland may explore innovative strategies for sustainable urban development that is harmonious with the environment and deeply rooted in the country’s Indigenous worldviews. These initiatives hold the promise of not only preserving invaluable ecological knowledge but also fostering the sustainable development of urban environments in the Arctic region, reinforcing the enduring bond between Indigenous communities and their ancestral lands.
