Join our Lakota and Sámi Nation presenters as they unveil a powerful new model that allows for equitable, respectful and successful collaboration between Indigenous and Western scientific systems for the purpose of conserving and sustaining all life.
Descripción de la sesión
The majority of Indigenous scientific systems were developed over many thousands of years to ensure the sustainability of life forms within their respective territories. This knowledge and scientific understanding will inform new paths in the face of accelerated environmental shifts due to anthropogenic climate change, but there are challenges to bringing Indigenous science forward in a meaningful way within the current Western scientific framework. In this session, we share a newly developed and successfully applied model that allows for authentic cross-cultural and cross-scientific system collaboration for the purpose of sustaining all life. Our award-winning, collaborative research regarding horses will serve as a case study, and another case features research to support the mobility and resilience of semi-nomadic reindeer herders. We invite you to join us as we follow our reindeer and Horse Nation relatives on this new path toward our shared, sustainable future.Organised by
