Inuit Community (in Greenlandic: Inuit Ataqatigiit) is a socialist political party in Greenland. The party was born out of the increased youth radicalism in Denmark during the 1970s. The party strives to make Greenland an independent state.
At the last legislative elections on the fifteenth of November, 2005, the party won 22,6% of the popular vote and seven out of 31 seats.
Inuit Community is represented in the Folketinget, the Danish parliament, by Kuupik Kleist. Its current president is Josef Motzfeldt, member of the Parliament of Greenland.
