27 Review of focal paper Can historical names and fishers knowledge help to reconstruct the distribution of fish populations in lakes? (Spens 2007) Review of general topic Historical, indigenous and traditional knowledge Examples and expansion Discussion Questions
28 Many examples in fisheries science literature: Reduce effort needed for large- scale studies (Hesthagen et al. 1993) Past occurrence of species (Wallace 1998) Original landscapes (Sousa and Garcia- Murillo 2001)
29 Definition: The knowledge and insights acquired through extensive observation of and interaction with an area or a species, including knowledge passed down in an oral tradition, or shared among users of a resource (Huntington 2000). Cumulative body of knowledge, practice, and belief (Berkes et al. 2000) Evolving, culturally transmitted (Berkes et al. 2000) Historical, local, indigenous
30 Semi- directive interview Questionnaire Analytical workshop Collaborative fieldwork Context- specific considerations: intent and local challenges (Huntington 2000)
31 Key features of TEK: iterative and adaptive Many valuable uses of TEK in the context of fisheries management Opportunities to augment scientific understanding
32 Potential value- added: Location- specific knowledge (Poizat & Baran 1997) Species- specific knowledge (Aswani & Hamilton 2004) Folk taxonomy and systematics (Drew 2005) Increased knowledge of environmental linkages (Gadgil et al. 1993)
33 Value- added continued: Evaluating change (Ellis & West 2005) Baseline data (Menzies 2006) Development of new hypotheses (Pers. Com. Dr. Dee Williams, U.S. DOI Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, 2015)
34 Value- added continued: Expertise in working with animals (Pers. Com. Dr. Dee Williams, U.S. DOI Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, 2015) Local capacity- building and power sharing (Drew 2005)
35 Barriers to integration: Not empirical, not systematic (Gadgil et al. 1993) Misconception of what TEK is, and can offer (Huntington 2000) Language (Drew 2005) Culture (Houde 2007) Politics (Butler 2006) Lack of effective methodology (Williams 2012)
36 Review of focal paper Can historical names and fishers knowledge help to reconstruct the distribution of fish populations in lakes? (Spens 2007) Review of general topic Historical, indigenous and traditional knowledge Examples and expansion Discussion Questions
37 Case 1: Integrating Local Knowledge in BC Case 2: Bowhead Whale Population Estimates Canadian Policy Northwest Territories British Columbia
38 Looked at the Herring Fisheries in BC Interviewed 30 people with different back grounds (Mackinson 2001) 9 fishers 7 fisheries Managers 8 fisheries Scientists 6 aboriginal fishers
39 Fishers Seine netters and 1 gillnetter (Mackinson 2001) Aboriginal Elders from different bands 290 years of Collective Experience
40 Interviewed the most experienced individuals Asked calibrating questions to ensure the interviewee s honesty (Mackinson 2001) Asked one question that has a well known answer Asked one question that is nearly impossible to answer All interviewee s found to be honest
41 Differences between groups (Mackinson 2001) Fishers Good with observations Could not say why things happened Scientist Good with interpreting their results Better at interpreting and assigning importance to features
42 Used a fuzzy logic expert system (CLUPEX) If..Then statements Infered qualitative and quantitative data No instance where information contradicted other interviews (Mackinson 2001)
43 Bowhead populations managed by DFO in Canada (DFO 2014) Considered a species at risk in Canada Presently with ~10,200 individuals (DFO 2014)
44 In 1997 US scientist completed a study in Alaska Counted all whales passing Assumed that: No eating on migration to feeding grounds Used available open water to breath All open water appeared near surveying site Short migration period
45 Esitmated individuals Delcared the species endangered Informed International Whaling Commission (IWC) of their findings The whale hunt canceled to preserve the populations integrity
46 Inupiat aboriginal band contested the decision to band whale harvest Claimed poor study design vastly underestimated the population size
47 Inupiat contested that all of the assumptions Whales eat while migrating Whales can break through ice to breath More open water further north then surveyed Migration much longer then presumed in the study Migration corridor hundreds of Kilometers larger
48 After court case IWC removed the ban After 14 years of research all claims by the Inupiat were found to be correct
49 What we learned Using local knowledge can help build a more effective study Traditional knowledge can advance aide science and potentially speed up the process
50 Canada gives environmental assessor choice to use TEK or not (CEAA 2013) Northwest Territories Considered leader in Traditional Ecological Knowledge policy British Columbia No current policy
51 Recognize the vast knowledge accumulated by Aboriginal peoples The government recognizes that aboriginal traditional knowledge is a valid and essential source of information about the natural environment and its resources (Northwest Territories Policy )
52 Traditional Knowledge Policy Framework Coordinate using Traditional Knowledge Working Group Provide training and awareness, collaborate, promote, support and guidance, resources, and accountability
53 No official policy Trending towards co- management Has been used in specific cases Herring Fisheries Management (Mackinson 2001) Pacific Region Crab Fishery (DFO 2014) White Sturgeon Fisheries (Eco- trust Canada 2012)
54 Use of TEK can help develop a more effective scientific study but integration will be a challenge Canadian Policy varies and has room for development
55
56 Do you think that evaluating historical map data is a viable method for use in fisheries management in BC? What are the largest barriers to integrating TEK with Western science? Do you think that Canada needs a hard policy on Traditional Ecological Knowledge?
