#Biocultural families: Study centers #Indigenous priorities in connections to #environment
by Seth Truscott, August 11, 2026
"Washington State University horticulturist #JeffreyWall partnered with members of the #Mikmaq #FirstNations people of #Canada to create a new, #IndigenousCentered model of the connections that link humans with plants, animals and the environment.
"Wall interviewed over a dozen traditional knowledge keepers in Unama'ki, the #CapeBreton Island homeland of the Eskasoni Mi'kmaq. He asked tribal elders and allies to describe #BioculturalConnectivity — the relationship between human cultures and local #ecosystems — as they see it. The findings were published in Environmental Science & Policy.
" 'I wanted to show the connective forces that the Mi'kmaq prioritize,' Wall said. 'The goal was to be in tune with their deep #CulturalHeritage, traditions and the #indigenization of the future that they want to promote.'
"With more than 66,000 registered members, the Mi'kmaq are a resilient people native to the U.S. Northeast and Canada's Atlantic provinces who are revitalizing their language and growing their landholdings. Wall's work can guide future mapping and inform the institute's land acquisition strategy.
"The project reflects the concept of #TwoEyedSeeing — understanding the world from both #Indigenous and #Western approaches — introduced by Mi'kmaq elders Albert and Murdena Marshall.
" 'There is a growing understanding that environmental conditions can improve if we bring more Indigenous ways of knowing and being into the conversation,' said Lisa Young, executive director of the Unama'ki Institute of Natural Resources. 'Maintaining a #reciprocal relationship with the land is in itself a way to protect and preserve it.' "

The CBC's Canada Reads competition is in full swing. And so far, Kate Beaton's remarkable graphic memoir, Ducks, is still in the race. A good reason and moment to re-post my Alberta Unbound interview with her! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s4-episode-4-of-ducks-and-men/id1511810939?i=1000587140178 #AlbertaUnbound #FortMcMurray #Alberta #CapeBreton #CBC #CanadianBroadcastingCorporation #CanadaReads #CanadaReads2023 #MatteaRoach #KateBeaton #Ducks #OilSands #NovaScotia #SenateofCanada

Our most recent Alberta Unbound episode featured Kate Beaton, talking about her extraordinary book, #Ducks - a graphic memoir of her years working in the oil sands. This is the book everyone is talking about - it's extraordinary. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s4-episode-4-of-ducks-and-men/id1511810939?i=1000587140178 #FortMcMurray #oilsands #KateBeaton #Alberta #CapeBreton

Kate Beaton made her name with her witty web comic, Hark! A Vagrant. Her new book, #Ducks, is very different - a powerful #memoir of her years in the oil sands work camps north of Ft. McMurray. Proud to host her on the latest episode of Alberta Unbound. This is a dark, disturbing, and funny conversation. And if you want to understand #Alberta - or Cape Breton - it's a must listen. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s4-episode-4-of-ducks-and-men/id1511810939?i=1000587140178 #CapeBreton #KateBeaton #ymm #oilsands
