COP-26 Video of the Week: “Indigenous Knowledge and Cryosphere Science” with Tiana Carter, Penehuro Lefale, and Kelly Moneymaker

Arctic and Mountain indigenous peoples have intimate knowledge of the regions in which they live and the ongoing impacts of climate change; but rarely are included in published research. This session proposes ways in which this gap can be addressed, and features the world premiere of a documentary on the connection between indigenous knowledge and science.

Main presenters include Tiana Carter, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade New Zealand; Penehuro Lefale, Ministry of Climate Oceans and Resilience, Government of Tokelau; Ruth Miller, Native Movement (Alaska); Maka Monture Paki, Always Indigenous Media, Trans-Pacific Youth Delegation; and Kelly Moneymaker, Massey University.
