Communication 

Guidelines for Considering Traditional Knowledges (TKs) in Climate Change Initiatives: a publication intended to be an informational resource for tribes, agencies, and organizations across the United States interested in understanding TKs in the context of climate change.​
What is indigenous knowledge or traditional knowledge?
  • “TKs broadly refer to indigenous communities’ ways of knowing that both guide and result from their community members’ close relationships with and responsibilities towards the landscapes, waterscapes, plants, and animals that are vital to the flourishing of indigenous cultures” (From Guidelines for Considering Traditional Knowledge in Climate Change Initiatives). 
  • English language phrases like “traditional ecological knowledge” are coined in non-indigenous academic and policy circles, and often do not fully reflect the ways in which indigenous communities refer to, or think of, their knowledge and lifeways (McGregor 2005, Williams and Hardison 2013, Whyte 2013).
Rick Hill (Tuscarora) is an artist, writer and curator who lives at the Six Nations Community of the Grand River Territory in Ontario, Canada. Over the years, Rick has served as the Manager of the Indian Art Centre, Ottawa, Ontario; Director of the Indian Museum at the Institute of American Arts in Santa Fe, NM; and the Assistant Director for Public Programs at the National Museum of the American Indian, Smithsonian Institution; and Manager of the Haudenosaunee Resource Center. Currently he is the Coordinator for the Joint Stewardship Board at Six Nations to develop an environmental interpretation centre and is the manager of the Six Nations Virtual Archives Project.
Connecting on Climate: A Guide to Effective Climate Change Communication
The guide is a joint project between the Center for Research on Environmental Decisions (CRED) at the Earth Institute, Columbia University and ecoAmerica, and is designed as a follow up to CRED’s 2009 guide, The Psychology of Climate Communication: A Guide for Scientists, Journalists, Educators, Political Aides, and the Interested Public.
