This is a protocol that seeks to protect a federally recognized American Indian tribe’s intellectual property (IP) and traditional knowledge (TK) from unapproved usage, while securing a process through which research ed information can be effectively obtained and disseminated. While acknowledging that each American Indian community may vary regarding its own unique protocol practices, the following document covers four sets of principles and issues which are over-arching recommendations for developing positive communications and collaborative research relationships between a tribe(s) and researchers funded by federal and/or state agencies. Illustrative case examples will be provided throughout this document that...
Based upon the research developed in association with the Sqigwts NKN Climate Change project, this document provides recommendations on how to design inter - actable food producing “Gardens” (the term defined later in this document), with appropriate Indigenous content and pedagogical considerations relating to climate change. The Garden could be used by the Tribe at their discretion to identify, protect and perpetuate the use and locations of traditional, native plants used in the traditional seasonal round . It seeks to demonstrate that both indigenous and sc ientific knowledge can be successfully applied in this endeavor. It seeks to be an educational venue for students and their teachers, and to be a sustainable...
The Northeast United States and Atlantic Canada share many of the same types of forests, wetlands, and natural communities, and from a wildlife perspective the region is one contiguous forest. However, resources are classified and mapped differently on each side of the border, which creates challenges for habitat evaluation, species modeling, and predicting the effects of climate change. To remedy this, ecologists from The Nature Conservancy collaborated with a committee of scientists from various Canadian institutions to produce the first international map of terrestrial habitats for northeastern North America. The project used extensive spatial data on geology, soils, landforms, wetlands, elevation and climate....
