Researchers are increasingly #co-producing #knowledge with #Indigenous peoples but academic institutional practices can disincentivize co-production. Grimm et al. draw on their experience to outline challenges and recommend “actionable solutions for academic institutions” doi.org/10.1016/j.tr...

Pairing #Indigenous ways of knowing with science is known "for its ability to bring new tools, data & perspectives into #marine management” state @rachaelcadman.bsky.social et al. They illustrate this approach with #calendars that can be used to inform environmental #policies doi.org/10.1139/as-2...
