Purpose
This project seeks to develop a sustainable, community-led scallop and sea cucumber fishery in Ungava Bay in partnership with the Makivvik Corporation and researchers from the University of Quebec at Trois-Rivières. Using the Lampsilis research vessel, the project will survey marine stocks and broader ecosystem variables to assess fishery feasibility and establish a baseline for long-term environmental monitoring. The initiative also emphasizes collaboration with local communities to promote knowledge exchange and support adaptation to climate change.
