Here we present the case of a team of university researchers, indigenous students, and local investigators who used a participatory approach to map cultural landscapes and mature …
T he last generation? Perspectives of inshore fish harvesters from Change Islands, Newfoundland
Our investigation examines the perspectives of fish harvesters on key challenges facing the inshore fishery in Newfoundland and Labrador.
