This report is divided into an introduction and methods section. Then the results from the Näätämö catchment area are presented, including a climate action the Skolt Sámi have initiated – Indigenous-led ecological restoration of ‘lost’ aquatic habitats to combat climate change. This process is unique across the Arctic.
In the third part we hear the results from Ponoi catchment area and the coastal community of Sosnovka. This iconic salmon stream is of great international importance as the ‘last’ remaining fully intact wilderness basin in the European North.
