| Abstract | Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) has a strong interest in enhancing community engagement throughout its programs. To this end, NRCan participated in a three-day knowledge-sharing workshop with elders,
adults and youth from Gjoa Haven, organized by researchers from Carleton and Queen's universities. The purpose of the workshop was to collect data of relevance to the local community within the context of traditional harvesting and resource
utilization, to teach data collection and survey methods to youths, adults and elders, and to co-develop future research strategies of relevance to the community. The workshop demonstrated cooperative learning and community engagement towards
addressing issues of importance in the Canadian Arctic. This report presents a video summary of the workshop. |
