Grant Overview

Nova Scotia's fishing industry is on the front lines of climate change, with warming ocean temperatures and shifting fish stocks affecting the livelihoods of coastal communities. To capture the stories of these changes, this funding supports multimedia projects that document the experiences of fishermen and their families. Eligible applicants must demonstrate an understanding of the province's fisheries management policies and the cultural significance of fishing in Nova Scotia. Unlike neighboring New Brunswick, Nova Scotia's fishing industry is characterized by a high proportion of small, family-owned boats, requiring a nuanced approach to storytelling. Operations in Nova Scotia: Journalists will need to navigate the province's complex fisheries regulations and collaborate with fishermen to gather data and produce compelling narratives. Funding will assist with equipment, travel, and production costs. The province's rugged coastline and diverse marine ecosystems provide a unique backdrop for storytelling, with opportunities to explore the intersections of climate change, culture, and industry. Nova Scotia's Coastal Communities: With 13,300 kilometers of coastline, Nova Scotia's fishing industry is deeply embedded in the province's culture and economy. Funding will support projects that highlight the adaptive strategies being employed by fishermen and their communities in the face of climate change. By supporting storytelling projects in Nova Scotia, this grant aims to inform policy discussions on climate resilience and fisheries management.
