2. How are western (contemporary) management practices and regulations affecting fish survival and harvest? And how are they affecting indigenous traditions and the future of new generations?
3. What is a "two-eyed-seeing" approach and how can it transform fisheries research and management? Provide an example.
These are the resources for the questions:
