Indigenous Science, Biodiversity, and Climate Action

In this first Climate Conversation, learn about the vital importance of Indigenous science and the Three-Eyed Seeing approach for implementing meaningful climate action that protects communities, biodiversity and ecosystem health, and honours the reciprocal relationship Indigenous communities maintain with the land. Indigenous science, “is the knowledge of survival since time immemorial and includes knowledge of plants, the weather, animal behaviour and patterns, birds, and water.” It is essential to apply foundational concepts such as bridging, braiding and weaving Indigenous science into climate action work.
