Abstract
On the land interviews, local stories, imagery, audio and video recordings of local perspectives of the land and water.
Purpose
Populations in the Saskatchewan River Delta, such as the Indigenous communities in Cumberland House, have been adversely affected by upstream water withdrawals for irrigation, dam-induced alterations of the seasonal river flows for hydropower, and legacies of industrial pollution. This research is part of a larger community-based participatory research program examining the human dimensions of water security in the Cumberland House community through shared narratives and photos. We seek to inform water resources modeling with the values, insights, and perspectives of changes in water resources from the point of view of the people of Cumberland House so that models may better reflect local contextual factors in their execution.
