Published purpose

This project will address priorities related to ecosystems and well-being and is designed to explore how Inuit cultural norms and traditional ecological knowledge held by Elders and harvesters, which has helped sustain ecosystems throughout Nunatsiavut for millennia, can guide contemporary ecosystem management efforts. By focusing on Inuit knowledge regarding species management and sustainable harvest, this study will also address the priority of well-being as it will reconnect Elders and youth and foster self-determination in research and management.
