Canadian Studies director speaks at conference on: “Arctic Marine Resource Governance”

October 31, 2015

Vince Gallucci, Canadian Studies Director, will be speaking at the conference, “Arctic Marine Resource Governance” in Reykjavik, Iceland. The ecosystem changes underway in the Arctic region are expected to have significant impacts on living resources in both the short and long run, and current actions and policies adopted over such resource governance will have serious and ultimately irreversible consequences in the near and long terms. The themes of the conference will be: Global management and institutions for Arctic marine resources; Resource stewards and users: local and indigenous co-management; Governance gaps in Arctic marine resource management; and Multi-scale, ecosystem-based, Arctic marine resource management.

The conference is part of the project: Marine Resource Governance in the Arctic, financially supported by Nordic Council of Ministers’ Arctic Co-operation Programme, the Joint Committee for Nordic Research Councils in the Humanities and Social Sciences, and the Carlsberg Foundation.
