Alaska is famous for its fisheries, yet inequities exist in fisheries education, research, and governance. However, two UAF faculty members—Jessica Black and Courtney Carothers—are spearheading a program that seeks to mitigate these inequities by joining Western and Indigenous scientific knowledge.
Jessica Black, associate vice chancellor for rural, community and Native education, and Courtney Carothers, professor, UAF, presented the talk “All of Us: Bridging Indigenous and Western Fisheries Science" on Feb. 27, 2024, in Fairbanks, Alaska, and virtually as part of the 32nd annual Science For Alaska talk series.
