Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Cross-Cultural Research
This article addresses a number of issues specific to underserved populations in Alaska and other geographic regions inhabited by Indigenous peoples. It also provides a much-needed impetus toward organizing research and education support structures that contribute to the broadening of an infrastructure fostering the use of multiple knowledge systems and diverse approaches to research. The international scope of the initiatives described provides multiple benefits derived from the economies of scale associated with linking numerous small-scale populations, as well as increased generalizability of outcomes associated with the extensiveopportunities for cross-cultural comparison.
The Present and Future of Land-based Education in Treaty #3
In this paper, we examine the current state of land-based education within Treaty #3 and look to potential models for strengthening and building upon current practices. This paper is organized around four central questions:1. Where are we now?2. What characterizes Anishinaabe land-based education?3. Why is land-based education important now?4. Where do we want to go?By reflecting on and responding to these questions, we hope to begin a discussion about how land-based pedagogies rooted in Anishinaabe knowledge can improve and strengthen the educational outcomes for all students within Treaty #3
