Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans has begun funding projects that bring Indigenous knowledge into the development of the country's "blue" economy, which is based on a sustainable use of marine resources. Their work is part of a larger initiative to help First Nations become more self-sufficient in gathering and using information about such resources.
