  • Renegotiating Species Belonging in a Changing World

    Open AccessAisling Rayne, Marc Tadaki et al.ARTICLEProgress in Environmental Geography2025References: 164

    Globalizing forces keep creating new “alien” or “introduced” species, but what should be done about these new nonhuman neighbors is contested. Arguments about whether species belong often bundle together claims about what is and what should be, which can create an uneven playing field that overlooks the diversity of human relations with new neighbors. This paper aims to distinguish a constructive path forward by distilling four ways that species …

  • Contribution of Indigenous Peoples' understandings and relational frameworks to invasive alien species management

    Open AccessPriscilla M Wehi, Katie L Kamelamela et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2023

    Introduced species that spread and become invasive are recognised as a major threat to global biological diversity, ecosystem resilience and economic stability. Eradication is often a default conservation management strategy even when it may not be feasible for a variety of reasons. Assessment of the substantive socioeconomic and ecological impacts of invasive alien species (IAS), both negative and positive, is increasingly viewed as an important…

  • Scientists' Warning to Humanity on Threats to Indigenous and Local Knowledge Systems

    Open AccessÁlvaro Fernández‐llamazare, Álvaro Fernández-Llamazares et al.ARTICLEJournal of Ethnobiology2021

    The knowledge systems and practices of Indigenous Peoples and local communities play critical roles in safeguarding the biological and cultural diversity of our planet. Globalization, government policies, capitalism, colonialism, and other rapid social-ecological changes threaten the relationships between Indigenous Peoples and local communities and their environments, thereby challenging the continuity and dynamism of Indigenous and Local Knowle…

  • Environmental Change and Sustainability of Indigenous Languages in Northern Alaska

    Open AccessNicholas James Reo, Sigvanna Meghan Topkok et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2019

    Relatively few people under the age of 60 are fluent speakers of the various Indigenous languages of Alaska. Concurrently, climate change is severely impacting Alaska and its residents, where environments are changing far more rapidly than the majority of the planet. These factors complicate the land-language nexus and may have implications for the sustainability of Indigenous languages in Alaska and other parts of the Arctic. In this collaborati…

  • Inawendiwin and Relational Accountability in Anishnaabeg Studies: The Crux of the Biscuit

    Open AccessNicholas James ReoARTICLEJournal of Ethnobiology2019Cited by: 12References: 19

    Researchers working with Indigenous nations often recognize the need to build respectful relationships with nation representatives, but too often assume that everyone has the same understandings of respect and accountability. Relational accountability, an ethical guideline for conducting research with Indigenous nation partners, references the kincentric beliefs among many Indigenous Peoples. It implies that researchers are responsible for nurtur…

  • Factors that support Indigenous involvement in multi-actor environmental stewardship

    Open AccessNicholas James Reo, Kyle Powys Whyte et al.ARTICLEAlterNative An International…2017

    Regional, multi-actor environmental collaborations bring together diverse parties to achieve environmental protection and stewardship outcomes. Involving a range of participants helps involve alternative forms of knowledge, expertise, and perspectives; it may also present greater challenges in reaching agreements, particularly when both Indigenous and non-Indigenous parties are involved. The authors conduct a cross-case study of 39 regional partn…

Reo (bio), Kyle Whyte (bio), Darren Ranco (bio), Jodi Brandt (bio), Emily Blackmer (bio), and Braden Elliott (bio) North American Indigenous nations are confronting various forms of rapid environmental change, ranging from climate-induced sea-level rise on the Gulf Coast, to melting permafrost and shifting sea ice patterns in the Arctic, to invasive species-induced tro…

  • The Importance of Belief Systems in Traditional Ecological Knowledge Initiatives

    Open AccessNicholas James ReoARTICLEInternational Indigenous Policy…2011Cited by: 7

    Resource managers are increasingly engaging with tribes and first nations and looking for methods to incorporate their perspectives, priorities and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) into public land and resource management. Many initiatives that engage tribes and their TEK holders only seek tribal input, such as biological data, that is most easily integrated into existing management structures. Increasing attention on tribal belief systems …
