Figure 11.2 Schematic representation of the participatory muskox health surveillance programme devel-
oped in the community of Cambridge Bay in the Canadian Arctic. Muskox health and disease status are
assessed by combining local knowledge with scientific knowledge. The dotted lines represent how the
different components of the system relate to each other. Illustration: courtesy of Matilde Tomaselli.

Figure 11.3 Schematic representation of the proportional piling technique used in the group interviews
performed with participants of the community of Cambridge Bay (Victoria Island, Nunavut). Proportional pil-
ing generally uses 100 counters (beans) as unit of measure which are then counted individually to generate
proportions; in this project, we used a larger amount of beans and measurement was done using a measuring
cup with a percentage scale. Figure reproduced from Tomaselli et al. (2018a), with kind permission of Elsevier.
