Published purpose

The main goal of the project is to protect and promote strong, sustainable fisheries and dynamic ocean ecosystems into perpetuity. With ongoing analysis of monitoring data, the project aims to mitigate environmental and human-induced stressors negatively impacting aquatic sites and species. Based on data collected during Coastal Restoration Nunavut (CRN) consultations, three communities prioritized community-based monitoring activities, ensuring effective coastal zone management and research on species of local and cultural importance: Sanikiluaq (echinoderms), Taloyoak (whitefish), and Kugaaruk (arctic char).
