Cultural Resource Management
Northwestern B.C. is home to First Nations who have inhabited the area since time immemorial. Increasing pressure on our natural resources makes it important to conduct research into traditional knowledge and traditional use. Additionally, the need to manage for intangible aspects of the aboriginal worldview is imperative. The BVRC is well situated to conduct these types of research.
