On behalf of several research projects, the National Wild Salmon Center invites participation in research projects that will conduct research on the Tana River Basin.

Information meeting in Karasjok on Monday, October 14th at 6:00 PM at Scandic Karasjok Hotel

Joddu is engaged by UiT to coordinate contact between local communities along the Tanavassdraget and several research institutions that want to conduct research on topics that particularly involve local and traditional knowledge of the Tanavassdraget, in different ways and levels of research on the Tanavassdraget.

 At the information meeting you will get more info about :

1. The RecoSal research project, led by LUKE and involving NINA and UiT together with Umeå University, aims to bring together bearers of local, traditional and scientific knowledge and rights holders to plan together what can be done to protect and rebuild salmon stocks and salmon fishing culture along the Tana River and its tributaries.

2. The newly launched project "Sharing our knowledge", in which UiT is part of an international project focusing on climate risk in watercourses that are the basis of indigenous culture, is collaborating with DeanuInstituhtta and Joddu to identify the need for knowledge about climate risk.

We know that the residents along the waterway have valuable knowledge and insight, so we would like to invite them to participate in these research projects. We therefore invite you to a non-binding information meeting at Scandic Hotel Karasjok on Monday, October 14.

Everyone is welcome!
