 One of the central purposes of the Clayoquot Alliance is to promote
        academic research that responds to community needs and concerns. With

        a list of community research needs related to aquaculture,
        community health, marine resources,
        and tourism, each identified collaboratively through a number of interviews, meetings
        and community events. These included: Our acknowledgements and thanks go to all involved. Questions, comments and additions to this list are welcomed. Read more »

 The Protocols Project of the Clayoquot
                Alliance has released Version 1.0 of its Standard of Conduct
                for Research in Northern Barkley and Clayoquot Sound Communities.
                The Standard of Conduct was developed under the guidance
                of a working group that includes members
                  of
                  the
                  local community and the central region Nuu-chah-nulth First
              Nations. It is meant to guide
              Clayoquot Alliance-sponsored research in ways that are mutually
                beneficial to communities, First Nations and universities alike. UVic
