Polar Continental Shelf Program field operations manual.: M78-4/6-2025E-PDF

"Operating in the Canadian Arctic since 1958, the Polar Continental Shelf Program (PCSP) provides logistics and related support for the purposes of advancing scientific knowledge of the Arctic region and contributing to the exercise of Canada’s sovereignty in that region and its adjacent waters. The PCSP delivers aircraft and field equipment logistics, regional expertise, and accommodations support each year to scientific field research projects, federal operations, and training initiatives in Canada’s North. The PCSP’s logistics support extends across the Canadian North (as defined under the Arctic and Northern Policy Framework), and the bulk of PCSP-supported activities take place in Inuit Nunangat, the Inuit homeland in Canada. As a key enabler of Arctic science in Canada, the PCSP is working towards enhancing support of Inuit self-determination in research, in line with Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami’s efforts under the Inuit Strategy on Research (2018), and with the federal Inuit Nunangat Policy. PCSP-supported researchers are strongly encouraged to undertake research that aligns with Inuit research priorities and enhances local benefits, to partner with Inuit and Inuit organizations whenever possible, and to ensure Inuit access, ownership, and control over data and information as appropriate"--Operating in the North and Beyond, page [4].
