This project is a follow-up of the "Sustainable Reindeer Husbandry" project presented at the Third Arctic Council Ministerial Meeling in Finland in October 2002. That project focused on reindeer husbandry in the circumpolar region. This project expands the scope of inquiry in a number of areas. Instead of focusing exclusively on the herders, as the previous project did, it will examine the role of the whole family in reindeer husbandry. It will also study geographic population distributions, the growth and development of wild reindeer/caribou herds, as well as the indigenous societies that hunt them. This will include issues related to the traditional economies and ways of life of indigenous reindeer herders and hunters. The project's formal start-up date was in January 2003 and it will conclude in December 2004.
