With our latest program series, we've begun to explore the changing relationships between indigenous communities, their lands and surrounding environments in the face of rapidly accelerating climate change.
Indigenous peoples are leading in the efforts to adapt to new environments created by industrialisation, and are drawing upon generations of traditional knowledge and science to enact solutions for future generations and their survival.
By following the link provided; you can listen to 3 Indigenous women leaders give their responses and perspectives on the interconnections between all living things and our planet in the face of climate change, and what they feel should be done with this knowledge.
Featuring:
Suzanne Benally, (Navajo/ Santa Clara Tewa) Executive Director of Cultural Survival.
Tui Shortland (Maori) Director Pacific Indigenous & Local Knowledge Centre of Distinction
Jannie Staffanson (Saami) Organic and environmental chemist, member of the Saami Council.
