项目摘要

This award was provided as part of NSF's Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships (SPRF) program. The goal of the SPRF program is to prepare promising, early career doctoral-level scientists for scientific careers in academia, industry or private sector, and government. SPRF awards involve two years of training under the sponsorship of established scientists and encourage Postdoctoral Fellows to perform independent research. NSF seeks to promote the participation of scientists from all segments of the scientific community, including those from underrepresented groups, in its research programs and activities; the postdoctoral period is considered to be an important level of professional development in attaining this goal. Each Postdoctoral Fellow must address important scientific questions that advance their respective disciplinary fields. Under the sponsorship of Dr. João Biehl at Princeton University and Dr. Flora Lu at the University of California, Santa Cruz, this postdoctoral fellowship award supports an early career scientist examining the mechanisms through which Indigenous governance and stewardship fosters social-ecological resilience. In numerous locations and contexts, Indigenous institutions and cultural practices have resulted in positive environmental outcomes, such as promoting biological diversity, maintaining ecosystem services, and curbing deforestation. These outcomes are important globally because Indigenous peoples manage over 25 percent of the world’s land surface. This study explores these dynamics through a partnership with Indigenous communities, where accelerating deforestation and degradation, linked to resource extraction and urbanization, threaten their health, well-being, and sovereignty. Through a combination of ethnographic, human ecological, and spatial methodologies, this research will examine the connections between Indigenous biocultural heritage, institutions, and cultural values and their ecological impacts. A robust communication strategy ensures that results will inform both academics and the general public about how Indigenous practices build resilience and support conservation. Interdependent relationships over millennia between humans and their surroundings gave rise to a diversity of Indigenous territories across the planet. Drawing on rich biocultural heritage, Indigenous peoples have developed sophisticated institutions that simultaneously maintain ecosystem services and relationships with territory. This study investigates features of biocultural heritage, including the knowledge, innovations, and practices used by Indigenous peoples to gauge, interpret, and respond to internal and external feedbacks, transmit knowledge, and adapt to changing social, environmental, and political contexts. How do Indigenous peoples utilize their biocultural heritage in this manner, what limitations do they face in doing so, and why? This research will address such questions by leveraging a long-term partnership, where threats such as climate change and extractivism represent a microcosm of those impacting the broader region. A multi-methods approach (quantitative, qualitative, ethnographic, participatory) will support an examination of the coupling, decoupling, and potential for recoupling of biocultural heritage with specific territories. Results from this research will describe how diverse threats impact the resilience of Indigenous territories, and support how we theorize and understand territory. This work will contribute to the fields of human ecology, landscape ecology, land education, and social-ecological systems theory. More broadly, this research will support biological and cultural conservation by highlighting the importance of diverse Indigenous values and approaches, and inform the on-going production of a participatory planning instrument for territorial governance. The project also builds local capacity, training, and mentoring by including Indigenous researchers. Finally, the project has built in mechanisms for research dissemination, for academic and policy audiences, including engaging media sources to broadly communicate research findings.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
该奖项是NSF的社会,行为和经济科学博士后研究金(SPRF)计划的一部分。 SPRF计划的目标是为学术界,工业或私营部门以及政府的科学职业以及政府的科学职业准备前景,为前景做准备。 SPRF奖项涉及在既定科学家的赞助下进行两年的培训,并鼓励博士后研究员进行独立研究。 NSF试图促进科学界各个细分市场的科学家的参与,包括来自代表性不足的群体的研究计划和活动;博士后时期被认为是实现这一目标的重要水平。每个博士后研究员都必须解决重要的科学问题,以推进各自的学科领域。在普林斯顿大学的JoãoBiehl博士和加利福尼亚大学圣克鲁斯分校的Flora Lu博士的赞助下,这项博士后奖学金奖支持了早期的职业科学家,研究了土著治理和Stewardships和Stewardship的机制,从而促进了社会生态恢复能力。在众多地点和环境中,土著机构和文化实践导致了积极的环境成果,例如促进生物学多样性,维持生态系统服务和遏制森林砍伐。这些结果在全球范围内很重要,因为土著人民管理着全球25%以上的土地表面。这项研究通过与土著社区的合作伙伴关系来探索这些动态,在这些社区中,加速森林砍伐和退化,与资源提取和城市化相关,威胁了他们的健康,福祉和主权。通过民族志,人类生态和空间方法的结合,这项研究将研究土著生物文化遗产,制度和文化价值观及其生态影响之间的联系。强大的沟通策略确保结果将为学者和公众提供有关土著实践如何建立韧性和支持保护的信息。在人类与周围环境之间的几千年中,相互依存的关系引起了整个地球的各种土著领土。在富裕的生物文化遗产上,土著人民开发了复杂的机构,这些机构只是维持生态系统服务和与领土的关系。这项研究调查了生物文化遗产的特征,包括土著人民使用的知识,创新和实践来衡量,解释和回应内部和外部反馈,传递知识并适应不断变化的社会,环境和政治环境。土著人如何以这种方式利用其生物文化遗产,他们在这样做时面临什么局限性,为什么?这项研究将通过利用长期合作伙伴关系来解决此类问题,在这种伙伴关系中,气候变化和提取主义等威胁代表影响更广泛地区的威胁。多方法方法(定量,定性,民族志,参与)将支持对耦合,解耦和潜力进行生物文化遗产与特定领域的重耦。这项研究的结果将描述各种威胁如何影响土著领土的弹性,并支持我们理论和理解领土的方式。这项工作将有助于人类生态学,景观生态学,土地教育和社会生态系统理论的领域。从更广泛的角度来看,这项研究将通过强调潜水员土著价值观和方法的重要性,并为领土治理的参与计划工具提供持续的生产来支持生物学和文化保护。该项目还通过包括土著研究人员来建立地方能力,培训和心理化。最后,该项目构成了研究传播的机制,用于学术和政策受众,包括吸引媒体来源来广泛沟通研究结果。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子评估和更广泛的影响来通过评估来获得的支持。
