Chum salmon is a non-human relative and food source for many Alaska Native communities and critical resource for various fishing sectors across Alaska. Come join us to discuss the importance of Indigenous-led research and youth engagement in fisheries research. We will also talk about how bridging Western and Indigenous knowledge systems can create a better understanding of the health of salmon populations.
