Topic: Clam Gardens Facilitate Collaborations Between Indigenous Communities and Mainstream Science
Abstract: Expanding the impact, interest, and participation in geosciences is key to moving our discipline to a more just and equitable grounding. To do help provide a path forward, we have been working with individuals recognized by their peers as leaders in making this transition through community-engaged research. These are individuals that connect communities impacted by environmental change and solutions-oriented science, they build diverse coalitions of partners that result in increased diversity in geoscience and alter the definition of who can participate in geosciences. Using a partnership built around Indigenous ecosystem management as an example, we will explore how to span the boundary between community concerns and geoscience. The result of this being an equitable exchange of ideas, resources, and befits from collaborative community-based projects.
