Alongside groups Native Pathways and Reimagine Research, I'm getting ready to truly start on a project that investigates how to support Native American Knowledge in STEM contexts with the Smithsonian NMAI.
This should be amazing and a wonderful application of my equitable evaluation principles and the Equitable Evaluation Framework from EEI.
Rewarding and challenging in all the ways that make this work worthwhile!

Tweten is of #Cree ancestry and now lives on #PEI working on the PEI #ForestedLandscape Priority Place project as a #Mikmaw engagement co-ordinator.
The project #protects #SpeciesAtRisk & their #habitats & while it's hard to know how many #BlackAsh #trees are left on the Island, Tweten said 450 is a good guess.

#Academics from across the country travel on the #Amundsen every year to conduct #research on a wide range of #ocean related topics. Pamak and Saunders's research on the trip is part of #Nunatsiavut attempt to establish a #'MarinePlan for its waters. This plan would #manage Nunatsiavut's ocean space & #balance the #demand for human activities w/ the need for #environmental #protection 👍

The #Hopi of the Southwestern U.S. know so much the rest of us ought to learn.
The Hopi way -- humility, cooperation, respect, and universal earth stewardship -- explains their close to connection to #corn and its role in their creation story. Now #ClimateChange and persistent droughts threaten this tradition.

Currently reading/listening David #Graeber and David #Wengrow.s book 'The Dawn of Everything'.
Super insightful take on how the way we tell our story requires fundamental changes in perspective after all. Very inspiring and thought-provoking book! Highly recommended.
