Nuu-chah-nulth Salmon Law Project
FY 2020-21 · 2020-12-10
Summary
The Nuu-chah-nulth Salmon Law Project will support the sustainable management of salmon in the Ha-houlthee (traditional territories) of the central and northern Nuu-chah-nulth Nations. Sustainable resource management requires the revitalization of hishukish ts'awalk, an understanding that everything in the ecosystem is connected. Through this project, the organization will work with elders, traditional leadership, and knowledge holders to re-invigorate traditional fisheries laws into a modern format that conveys the community's vision for the management of fisheries to support the development of an indigenous law rationale for the creation of protected and conserved Salmon Parks in some Nuu-chah-nulth Nations.

Description (French)
Le projet de loi sur le saumon nuu-chah-nulth soutiendra la gestion durable du saumon dans les Ha-houlthee (territoires traditionnels) des nations Nuu-chah-nulth centrales et septentrionales. La gestion durable des ressources nécessite la revitalisation du ts'awalk hishukish, une compréhension que tout dans l'écosystème est connecté. Grâce à ce projet, l'organisation travaillera avec les anciens, les dirigeants traditionnels et les détenteurs de connaissances pour revigorer les lois traditionnelles sur les pêches dans un format moderne qui transmet la vision de la communauté pour la gestion des pêches afin de soutenir le développement d'une loi autochtone justifiant la création des parcs à saumons protégés et conservés dans certaines nations nuu-chah-nulth.
