This paper seeks to advance the understanding of the gendered impacts and implications of crises like the COVID-19 pandemic on Indigenous women in Alaskan urban and rural communities through a resilience lens. The paper addresses…
The Development of a Measure of Alaska Native Community Resilience Factors through Knowledge Co-production
Moving beyond engagement to knowledge co-production in Alaska Native research requires flexibility, shared decision-making and commitment to diverse knowledge systems; this can result in culturally attuned methods, greater tool validity, new ways to understand complex issues and innovations that support community health
Political ecology and decolonial research: Co-production with the Iñupiat in Utqiaġvik
Environmental social science research designs have shifted over the past several decades to include an increased commitment to multi-, inter-, and transdisciplinary team-based work that have had dual but complementary foci.

In this paper, we describe a case-study that explores the preferences of AN/AI community members rega…
