  5. FOUNDATION OF THE AYK SSI VISION: By 2012 we will have expanded knowledge to assure sustainable uses of wild salmon for future generations (2004) • We will develop a self-sustaining, coordinated research effort that continues into the future; • We will have completed a capacity building program that enables rural residents of the AYK region to effectively participate in co-management of the AYK salmon resource; and • We will assure broad understanding, acceptance, and commitment to implement our research plan.

  6. AYK SSI Matching Funding Commitment to ANSEP- MAY ’06 • Support from Comm. ADFG • Matching funds from NSF- SEPT ‘06

  7. - Why support ANSEP as a flagship Capacity building program?

  8. SYMPOSIUM GOAL : To communicate what is known, and needs to be known, about: • Ecological processes that cause change in salmon populations, • The effects of varying salmon runs on rural communities, and • The management of salmon fisheries in the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim (AYK) region. • SYMPOSIUM ORGANIZATION: Four Thematic Sessions: • Assess the State of the Fish Stocks and Analyze the Causes of Variation – • Socioeconomic Dimensions: Culture Change and Local Knowledge Systems • Fishery Management Strategies: Lessons from Local, Regional, and International Experiences • Synthesis and Integration of Symposium Topics and Research Planning • FOR MORE INFORMATION: www.aykssi.org / (907) 279-6519 / karengillis@cdqdb.org • SYMPOSIUM GOAL : To communicate what is known, and needs to be known, about: • Ecological processes that cause change in salmon populations, • The effects of varying salmon runs on rural communities, and • The management of salmon fisheries in the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim (AYK) region. • SYMPOSIUM ORGANIZATION: Four Thematic Sessions: • Assess the State of the Fish Stocks and Analyze the Causes of Variation – • Socioeconomic Dimensions: Culture Change and Local Knowledge Systems • Fishery Management Strategies: Lessons from Local, Regional, and International Experiences • Synthesis and Integration of Symposium Topics and Research Planning • FOR MORE INFORMATION: www.aykssi.org / (907) 279-6519 / karengillis@cdqdb.org • SYMPOSIUM GOAL : To communicate what is known, and needs to be known, about: • Ecological processes that cause change in salmon populations, • The effects of varying salmon runs on rural communities, and • The management of salmon fisheries in the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim (AYK) region. • SYMPOSIUM ORGANIZATION: Four Thematic Sessions: • Assess the State of the Fish Stocks and Analyze the Causes of Variation – • Socioeconomic Dimensions: Culture Change and Local Knowledge Systems • Fishery Management Strategies: Lessons from Local, Regional, and International Experiences • Synthesis and Integration of Symposium Topics and Research Planning • FOR MORE INFORMATION: www.aykssi.org / (907) 279-6519 / karengillis@cdqdb.org
