Chisasibi EHBJB Roundtable 2016

ABOUT

The inaugural East Hudson Bay/James Bay Regional Roundtable meeting was held in Chisasibi, from November 7th to 9th, 2016 with the goal of bringing together Inuit and Cree communities and stakeholders to share knowledge and coordinate on priorities for marine stewardship, ongoing and planned research, protected areas planning and communications. The meeting kick-started regional planning and consultation on priorities and a shared vision for environmental stewardship through a Hudson Bay Consortium, in advance of a Hudson Bay Summit that will bring together west and eastern groups to formally create the Hudson Bay Consortium.
