This is a 2-part series describing Service and Indigenous perspectives on the collection and incorporation of Indigenous Knowledge (IK) into the Alexander Archipelago Species Status Assessment (SSA). Over the next 2 months you’ll hear from a series of presenters who were involved in this process. In the first webinar, we will present the more technical aspects of initiating an IK effort concurrently with developing an SSA and reflect on the successes, challenges, and lessons learned from this process. In the second webinar, we will host a panel-style discussion with some of the Knowledge Bearers interviewed, focusing on the Indigenous perspective on this SSA process.
