Using local ecological knowledge as evidence to guide management: A community-led harvest calculator for muskoxen in Greenland ...
Indigenous peoples manage or have tenure rights on over a quarter of the world’s land surface. While there is growing interest in “evidence-based” natural resource management, there are few documented experiences with “evidence-based” practice in community-managed lands. We explore the evidence requ...
