Indigenous Knowledge & Geoscience
Education
Indigenous communities often have a deep understanding of their environment. This generational knowledge has the potential to evolve modern science. How can the scientific community give indigenous cultures a platform to share their knowledge?
Part two of our series on Indigenous Knowledge and Geoscience explores how oral histories from Native Hawaiian culture helped to establish a more accurate timeline for the formation of the Kilauea caldera.
Learn about how the Inuit people have shared their generational knowledge around the creatures that inhabit the waters they depend on for food and other vital resources.
In this part of the series we explore how old ideas from indigenous cultures can be implemented into new technologies!
This video looks at the way indigenous cultures have used controlled burns to manage wildfires for thousands of years. Something modern culture has only recently accepted for its environmental benefits!
