TRANSFORMING OUR APPROACH TO FRESHWATER RESEARCH
There is a need to transform our understanding and approach to freshwater research. Simply quantifying and analyzing ecological data fails to recognize the complexity, diversity and connections between environmental and social issues.
In this presentation, a holistic approach to freshwater research and management is discussed using examples from the lands of the traditional territories of Yukon First Nations, Canada. This approach includes the recognition and bridging of different knowledge systems (Indigenous and Western) and should include collaboration to foster shared decision-making and mutually beneficial knowledge sharing. We also discuss the importance of relationship building with local Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities alike in freshwater research.
Lastly, we introduce the topics of subsequent talks to be presented within this special session. Through this series of talks, it is our hope that participants become inspired to apply these teachings to their own freshwater research and programs.
