Description
Study uses mixed-methods interview to collect feedback from members of the communities of Igluligaarjuk (Chesterfield Inlet), Tikirarjuaq (Whale Cove), and Qamani’tuaq (Baker Lake) on wildlife co-management programs. Found that while most programs are working well and supported by local communities, there is significant conflict in regard to polar bear management.
