Local and Indigenous Ecological Knowledge
Indigenous and local ecological knowledge holders have a unique perspective that has evolved over multiple generations through direct contact with the environment. We partner with indigenous and local communities across North America to gather invaluable information about our changing environment and inform climate change adaptation strategies while respecting the unique nature of these knowledge systems.
