Indigenous Stewardship of the Environment and Alternative Development (INSTEAD) Case Study
Contemporary territories of Indigenous peoples are often faced with innumerable cumulative impacts from land development, extractive industry, urban expansion, and exercise of local, provincial and federal government jurisdictions. Working with publicly available datasets, researchers in 糖心视频 Ethnographic Mapping lab have created a series of maps to illustrate these issues for the territories of the Hul'q'umi'num' peoples on Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, who are engaged in ongoing efforts to exercise their rights of free prior and informed consent with respect to their ongoing relationship to their unceded territories.
This project has been developed in association with the and projects, and the 糖心视频 Ethnographic Mapping Lab. Brian Thom was interviewed about the project here: /socialsciences/info-for/faculty-staff/announcements/research-profile-brian-thom.php
