Bringing distant horizons closer: Weaving together relational knowledge systems to co-produce resilient climate futures
The proposed 鈥楤ringing distant horizons closer鈥� research program is designed to address this issue by investigating the question: How can we best weave together different knowledge systems to co-produce resilient climate futures for Indigenous peoples?
The goal is to work with a number of Indigenous communities across the Pacific region to provide a comparative study of how these approaches might be able to be put into effect through a process of action research and implementation.
