| Title: | Reducing vulnerability to climate change in the Arctic: the case of Nunavut, Canada / James Ford, and 7 others. |
| Author(s): | Ford, James. |
| Date: | 2007. |
| In: | Arctic. (2007.), Vol. 60(2) (2007) |
| Abstract: | Identifies key areas from research undertaken among communities of Arctic Bay and Igloolik where policy can help Inuit reduce vulnerability to climate change. Policy responses are based on understanding of policy development and decision making, and on understanding of processes that shape vulnerability, which in Nunavut comprise erosion of traditional Inuit knowledge and land-based skills, weakening of social networks, and reduction in harvesting flexibility. |
