  • Museum Care of Indigenous Cradles

    Open AccessAbby Baka, Ephraim ‘Zefren’ Anderson et al.ARTICLECurator The Museum Journal2026

    Traditional cradles are important objects in many Indigenous American cultures. A historical tendency of museums to overlook Indigenous perspectives on proper object handling and display has often resulted in improper care of culturally sensitive objects in museum collections. Through interviews at the Natural History Museum of Utah, we consulted members of Indigenous communities in and around Utah to ascertain culturally appropriate practices fo…

  • Comparing methods for research mentorship

    A Ruth, Melissa Beresford et al.ARTICLETeaching in Higher Education2025

    Recent research finds that a classic approach to research mentorship – the Socratic method – where faculty foster learning by posing probing questions, can also create gender and racial disparities in learning gains. A newer research mentorship method, the Critical Response Process (CRP), may address these shortcomings by giving students control over the flow and quality of feedback they receive. We test and compare the efficacy of these two meth…

  • Value Propositions Provide a Roadmap for Teaching Doctoral Students How to Develop Research Proposals

    Open AccessA Ruth, Melissa Beresford et al.ARTICLETeaching Anthropology2025

    Writing winning proposals for funding research is an essential skill for doctoral students in the social sciences. Still, most anthropology programs lack formal instruction on this, relying instead on informal mentorship. To advance this, we evaluated the Value Proposition framework in teaching anthropology Ph.D. students to write proposals. Our findings from the feedback from students and faculty in the NSF-funded Cultural Anthropology Methods P…

  • Promoting Food Systems Paradigm Shifts through Critical Reflexivity

    Open AccessLaura Joyner, Blanca Yagüe et al.ARTICLESocial Sciences2023References: 13

    This article highlights the transformative power of community-engaged research for food sovereignty through an examination of reflexive interviewing and knowledge co-production with community partners. Initially, we connected with an urban Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm to explore farmers’ concerns regarding their export of food from marginalized areas of the city to predominantly affluent neighborhoods. Our response to confirmatory d…

  • From fish and bushmeat to chicken nuggets

    Open AccessNathalie Van Vliet, Maria Paula Quiceno-Mesa et al.ARTICLEEthnobiology and Conservation2015Cited by: 21References: 15

    The current contribution of wild animal proteins has been poorly quantified, particularly in the rapidly growing urban centers of tropical forests. Lack of such evidence impairs food security strategies to include the diversity of food supply inherent to traditional food systems. In this study we focus on wild sources of animal protein: wild fish and bushmeat, which have traditionally been important in people’s diets in the Amazon. We analyze the…

  • Hacer comestible la ciudad. Las redes como estrategias alimentarias de los indígenas urbanos de Leticia, Amazonia colombiana

    Open AccessBlanca YagüeARTICLERevista Colombiana de Antropología2014Cited by: 1References: 6

    This paper addresses how urban indigenous people in Leticia develop strategies in order to access the traditional foods they cannot produce in the city. Through the establishment of food exchange networks they obtain food from the forest and also extend their alliances and build other social and gender relationships in a constantly changing urban environment. The study of these networks enables an understanding of how indigenous people interact a…
