RESEARCH & EDUCATION in the
CLAYOQUOT SOUND BIOSPHERE RESERVE
• Research and Education Highlights at The Ecolodge.
Why Study in Clayoquot Sound?
Clayoquot Sound is an excellent place to study the myriad of issues around
the question of how to live in a place. Clayoquot Sound acts as a dynamic
‘living classroom’ where researchers and students can engage
with communities and key issues, such as the dynamic relationship between
local activism and global policy, shared decision-making structures, conserving
indigenous cultures, community economic transitions, managing tourism
growth, youth, governance, and conserving biodiversity within coastal
temperate rainforest and marine ecosystems.
Clayoquot Sound has been host to a large number of research projects.
A recent inventory of research has over 900 entries, including 80 graduate
theses that represent a range of research interest, and it is not yet
complete.
RESEARCH & EDUCATION ECONOMY
