The Mackenzie Delta is an ecologically-rich freshwater environment in Canada’s Northwest Territories. It is vulnerable to multiple stressors such as climate change, resource development activities (oil and natural gas) and upstream-downstream linkages related to extraction activities in the southern part of the Mackenzie watershed. Resultant socio-ecological impacts affect fishing livelihoods, which represent a significant component of traditional food systems and ways of life for Inuvialuit.
This research seeks to effectively mobilize Inuvialuit Knowledge to explore the interconnection between socio-ecological changes in the Mackenzie Delta, fishing livelihoods and food security.
