Summary: | The RecoSal project aims to support collaborative governance for the recovery of a diverse Atlantic salmon population complex in the large River Teno catchment (in Finnish, Tana in Norwegian, and Deatnu in Sámi) in the northernmost Fennoscandia. Through the establishment of collaborations aiming towards a Living Lab, the project will connect knowledge production with salmon management, with a special emphasis on the development of population-specific, target-based assessments of genetically diverse salmon populations in a multicultural setting that values Indigenous and Local Knowledge (ILK) and rights. RecoSal will provide transdisciplinary advice for designing and implementing effective and socially robust governance and management practices with the aim of ecological conservation and recovery of depleted biodiversity. A series of four co-design workshops will be held during the RecoSal project´s implementation, where stakeholders will be informed and engaged, and where the project process will be decided upon in a participatory manner, and visions and outcomes discussed. This policy brief report from the first of the four workshops.
