In Conversation: Rooting conservation in indigenous ways of being

In Conversation - Conservation's Leading Edges: Rooting conservation in indigenous ways of being
Indigenous ways of being, knowing and engaging with the more-than-human world are radically different from those of most practitioners of mainstream conservation. They often centre healthy spiritual, emotional and material relationships as the source of well-being and balance for all living beings.
Contemporary conservation projects rooted in indigenous ontologies are growing and providing lived and empirical evidence for the sustainability of this approach. They demonstrate how indigenous knowledge can be used as a core compass for conservation decisions rather than a cosmetic add-on.
In this session, we will hear from scholars whose work explores how indigenous and relational ontologies can transform conservation theory and practice.
