The North American Caribou Workshop (NACW) is held every two years, and this year’s virtual instalment featured participants from North America and Europe. Industry, researchers, Indigenous community representatives, resource managers, and decision-makers came together to discuss and share learnings, ideas, and the challenges of caribou conservation.
In recent years, there have been ongoing improvements in resource exploration techniques that have allowed for faster recovery of the impacted forest.
