Overview

Review reveals structural biases affecting Indigenous peoples in knowledge exchange, highlighting the necessity of shifting jurisdictional and epistemological assumptions.

Key Points

  • Addressing systemic discrimination against Indigenous communities requires restructuring knowledge exchange frameworks, shifting both jurisdictional and epistemological assumptions.
  • Analysis of environmental research and decolonial literature introduces practical heuristic devices, providing summary figures and reflexive questions to guide collaborative practice.
  • Highlights the necessity of deeper reflexivity within settler-colonial contexts, requiring scholars to engage Indigenous expert knowledge creation with nature on its own terms.
