Climate change, wildlife harvest, and traditional food security in northern Quebec

The wild food system of northern Quebec is a critical natural resource, health resource, and cultural resource of the people of Eeyou Istchee and Nunavik, which has and will be impacted by climate change in many, diverse ways. The research proposed here seeks to identify the likely climate change impacts on key wild food species as well as the adaptation strategies that enable the maintenance of traditional food security in changing environments.
