Marine mammal co-management in Canada's Arctic: Knowledge co-production for learning and adaptive capacity
This paper examines the challenge of knowledge co-production and the implications for learning and adapting in the context of a narwhal co-management in Nunavut, Canada. Knowledge co-production is the collaborative process of bringing a plurality of knowledge sources and types together to address a...
