Understanding the complex nature of Alaska’s vast and varied salmon and people systems demands a multidisciplinary, cross-cultural approach. Alaska’s Salmon and People is a project of collaborations among individuals, agencies, tribal networks, academic institutions, nonprofits, industry representatives, policymakers, and more. All share the core value of respect, for each other and for the important role of salmon in Alaska.
