In their summary and concluding remarks, Camilla Brattland and Dorothee Schreiber highlight the diverse perspectives of indigenous communities regarding salmon farming and its impact on wild salmon populations. While some indigenous groups express zero tolerance toward fish farming, others show cautious acceptance or engage in negotiations with the industry. Despite these differences, indigenous participants share a common concern for the future of wild salmon and express a desire to collaborate globally on addressing emerging issues in salmon aquaculture. They emphasize the importance of recognizing indigenous rights and perspectives in fish farming operations and advocate for greater involvement of indigenous peoples in decision-making processes. The discussions underscore the need for continued dialogue and collaboration at both local and international levels to address the complex challenges facing indigenous communities and the salmon aquaculture industry.
