IMPAC5 is an opportunity to bring together different Nations and cultures to work collaboratively towards one common goal—protecting the world ocean.
This Congress will showcase the important role of Indigenous knowledge and leadership in managing marine protected areas in Canada and around the world.
We are grateful to the Host First Nations—xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh)—for welcoming us into their traditional territories for this Congress.
