Documenting the ethnobotanical plants of the Masherbrum valley along the Saltoro Glaciers, Karakorum Mountains
Background: The present study focused on documenting the ethnomedicinal knowledge originating from the Masherbrum valley Karakoram Range in Ghanche District, Baltistan region-Pakistan with an emphasis on the use of indigenous plant species prospective. Methods: Questionnaire semi-structured interviews were used to gather information from 217 participants encompassing 23 localities with 82.9% of men and 17.1% women. The majority of respondents (35…
The Yetwánaý Project
The Yetwánaý Project is a community-led, land-based case study from the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) Nation that explores how reconnection with culturally important plants can support Indigenous health and wellness, particularly in relation to the prevention and management of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). Rooted in Community-Based Participatory Action Research (CBPAR) and Insurgent Research methodologies, the project engaged over 200 participants through seas…
An ethnobotanical survey of medicinal plants used for children’s healthcare in Centre-Est Burkina Faso
Background: In Burkina Faso, a large part of population cannot afford conventional medicines, making the plant-based traditional ones essential for healthcare. Despite recent government efforts to ensure children's right to health, the under-five mortality rate remains high. The objective of this study is to establish a comprehensive database of plants commonly used by traditional healers in childhood disease management. Methods: The survey was c…
‘We have a lot of (un)learning to do’
Despite the disproportionate food injustice experienced by Indigenous Peoples, Black people and people of color, food movements have been dominated by white settlers who have had limited success in addressing this injustice. Settler colonialism is increasingly recognized as a root cause of food insecurity for Indigenous Peoples on Turtle Island; it is also a key contributor to food insecurity experienced by Black people and people of color. The r…
Ancestral Traditions of the Future
Background: Traditional knowledge and practice prevalence is on an overall decline. In this study, we examine preservation strategies reported in the literature, follow-up measures, and categories of traditional knowledge and conservation practices that are being attempted by non-profit organizations. Methods: To answer these questions, we reviewed the literature for keywords related to TKP preservation and also searched databases of organization…
Divergence and Convergence in Traditional Plant-Based Medicinal Practices of Haitian Migrants in Montreal, Miami and Cayenne
Well grounded
The biological knowledge and associated values and beliefs of Indigenous and other long-resident Peoples are often overlooked and underrepresented in governance, planning and decision-making at local, regional, national and international levels. Ethnobiology-the study of the dynamic relationships among peoples, biota and environments-is a field that places Indigenous Peoples' ecological knowledge and ways of knowing at the forefront of research i…
People and Plants in Nunatsiavut (Labrador, Canada)

Developing a community-based enterprise
Background: The medicinal plant rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea), while valuable as an adaptogen in the global trade of natural health products, is not currently commercially sourced in eastern Canada. Rhodiola grows prolifically along the coast of Labrador (Canada), including rocky shorelines, sandy beaches, and up to the high tidal zone. Nunatsiavut Inuit in these remote areas have traditionally used rhodiola as food and medicine; however, due to glob…
Berry Plants and Berry Picking in Inuit Nunangat
Traditional food is central to Inuit culture and sense of identity. Recent changes in lifestyle, climate, and animal populations have influenced how people practice and experience activities on the land. We summarize the findings of 191 new and archived interviews addressing the continued relationships of Inuit to berries in the Canadian territories of Nunavut, Nunavik, and Nunatsiavut. Berry plants have been and remain widely used throughout the…
Inuit Perception of Marine Organisms
To survive in the Arctic, the Inuit have developed a unique relationship with the marine environment and its living organisms. Unlike large marine mammals, the importance of smaller marine organisms for food, health, and wellbeing is largely undocumented. To call attention to these components of the food system in Nunavik, in northern Québec, and to understand their importance for health and wellbeing, Elders in two Inuit communities, Ivujivik an…
Larix laricina bark, a traditional medicine used by the Cree of Eeyou Istchee

Cultural Keystone Places
Sense of place" as an anthropological, geographical, and philosophical construct has been a focus of research in recent decades, particularly following the publication of Keith Basso's Wisdom Sits in Places. Simultaneously, the emergence of the concept of social-ecological systems and their value in the application of conservation and restoration practices has highlighted the unique benefits of recognizing the interconnectedness of social and eco…
An ethnobotany of the Lukomir Highlanders of Bosnia & Herzegovina
BackgroundThis aim of this study is to report upon traditional knowledge and use of wild medicinal plants by the Highlanders of Lukomir, Bjelašnica, Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H). The Highlanders are an indigenous community of approximately 60 transhumant pastoralist families who speak Bosnian(Bosanski)and inhabit a highly biodiverse region of Europe. This paper adds to the growing record of traditional use of wild plants within isolated communiti…
The Study of Inuit Knowledge of Climate Change in Nunavik, Quebec
In vitro inhibition of metabolism but not transport of gliclazide and repaglinide by Cree medicinal plant extracts
Adipogenic constituents from the bark of Larix laricina du Roi (K. Koch; Pinaceae), an important medicinal plant used traditionally by the Cree of Eeyou Istchee (Quebec, Canada) for the treatment of t…
Our plants, our land
Changes in subsistence practices have negatively affected the social and economic structure of aboriginal communities across the Arctic. This has resulted in fewer opportunities for the transmission of traditional knowledge (TK). This article provides two case studies of how researchers can assist northern communities in TK transmission and provide a venue for science and TK to meet, thereby fostering a positive relationship between scientists an…
