The marine waters of Howe Sound have been an area for research and exploration for over 40 years. More recently, information and traditional knowledge are being brought together with planning tools for more informed decision making. There is a common interest in ensuring marine waters are healthy, that they support and protect marine life, and protect communities from impacts of climate change.
