• NFRF-T awarded 2021: The scope of the project is novel in its combined concern with the well-being of Indigenous peoples and the conservation of biodiversity; it is also unique in its intention to build capacity within Indigenous communities to document and mobilize knowledge about biodiversity-well-being in ways that are recognized by regional-national-global institutions of biodiversity conservation. We propose a place-based participatory approach that allows for capacity-building, evidence-based research, knowledge mobilization and action in key regions globally. Led by Indigenous scholars and an Indigenous Advisory Council, the research team will engage in collaborative community-based research within Canada and 5 other global hubs.
