"Aboriginal peoples have had a long history of utilizing non-timber forest products While the type of products used is well document, little is know about the quantities collected and if these products could be sold and marketed as a means of income generation for Aboriginal peoples. This thesis examines three main components of the economic development for a potential NTFP in a sub-arctic aboriginal setting. The first part of this thesis examines the cultural and institutions implication of the collection of such a product in the Gwich'in Settlement Area (GSA).
