The Aboriginal Aquatic Resource and Oceans Management(AAROM) program is intended to build capacity for aquatic resource management in regions where Fisheries and Oceans Canada manages the fisheries. For example, the Dehcho region has an AAROM-funded biologist and technician and community-based monitoring in all communities. The AAROM program stems from the Aboriginal Fisheries Strategy and is funded by Fisheries and Oceans Canada.
