The Role of Indigenous Knowledge in the Central Arctic Ocean Fisheries Agreement
The North American Arctic (NAA) - the region spanning Alaska, the Yukon, the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Greenland - is increasingly recognized for its distinct landscapes, strong historic and cultural connections between communities and peoples, and rising opportunities for knowledge sharing. This speaker series invests in the people, opportunities, and strength of the NAA by providing a platform for knowledge sharing, networking, and international collaboration on pressing issues facing the region.
“It will take all of our collective knowledge to improve our understanding of the central Arctic Ocean ecosystem, to understand baseline conditions, to determine if fish stocks exist in the Agreement Area, and how future activity will impact the CAO ecosystem, its adjacent seas, and Inuit, as we live closest to the Agreement Area.” - Marie Greene, ICC Vice Chair
