Hi, I am Shelby Ross I am a PhD student at CU Boulder-Tribal Climate leaders Program

Sally Manning, Environmental Director, Big Pine Paiute Tribe of the Owens Valley (Calif.)

Hellow, I am Post Doctoral Researcher at Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria, Argentina

How do you deal with the filtering of ITEK through the non-indigenous worldview or frame of reference? It can take a while to educate non-native scientists to appropriately understand and incorporate ITEK. Often have to overcome ingrained western, Christian worldviews. Current gov't agency structure, culture, and priorities not very accommodating of ITEK.

Sharing ITEK is a sacred sharing of knowledge so there must be enough trust and an actual relationship for that to happen. Takes time and longevity of interpersonal relationships.
