Objectif(s): To document traditional ecological knowledge of boreal woodland caribou.
Description du projet: The objectives of this study are to document traditional ecological knowledge of boreal woodland caribou. The Colville Lake, Fort Good Hope, Norman Wells, Tulita and Déline Renewable Resource Council (RRC)s will be asked to provide a list of knowledgeable elders who have in the past or are presently harvesting boreal woodland caribou. These people will be contacted and asked to participate in the interviews. The research team will interview 25 Sahtu Settlement Area elders. Interviews will take place in Norman Wells at a prescribed time and location yet to be determined. Interviews will be semi-directed with some specific questions aimed at promoting a free-flowing discussion. The interview may take several hours to complete and will be recorded. The interviewers will be provided with background information by Environment Canada staff on the boreal caribou national recovery strategy and the types of information being sought. The interviews will be transcribed and a summary report will be completed and a verification meeting with individuals or a workshop will be held with the participants to ensure their information has been captured accurately. The final summary report will be written in plain language and prepared by the Sahtu Renewable Resources Board. Copies will be provided to each participant and the local RRC offices for their records. The fieldwork for this study will be conducted from December 9, 2010 to December 31, 2010.
