Ivvavik, meaning ‘a place for giving birth, a nursery,' in Inuvialuktun, the language of the Inuvialuit, is the first national park in Canada to be created as a result of an Indigenous land claim agreement — the Inuvialuit Final Agreement (1984). The park protects a portion of the calving grounds of the Porcupine caribou herd and represents the Northern Yukon and Mackenzie Delta natural regions. Ivvavik, qui signifie « lieu pour mettre au monde, aire de croissance » en inuvialuktun, la langue des Inuvialuits, est le premier parc national du Canada créé à la suite d'une entente visant une revendication territoriale des Autochtones, soit la Convention définitive des Inuvialuit (1984). Le parc protège une grande partie du terrain de mise bas de la harde de caribous de la Porcupine et représente les régions naturelles du nord du Yukon et du delta du Mackenzie.
