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.
