Scope and contentThis file contains a presentation by Johannes Lampe that begins with a brief history of Nain. Lampe is frustrated with the lack of funding as "communities located north of the 60th parallel are eligible for more federal programs" that Nain is. Lampe also discusses the recent suicide attempts in Nain and the lack of health and social programs for children, youth and adults. He calls on the Commission to secure more funding at the local level to initiate the programs urgently required to help Nain residents. A question-and-answer period with the Commissioners follows the presentation.
