Practicing resilience has always been vital to Ojibwe lifeways. Grounded in the importance of place, Ojibwe worldviews recognize the hierarchically dependent Four Orders (physical, plant, animal, human) and the importance of cultural security for maintaining these relationships. When any of these orders is threatened, resilience and sustainability are also threatened. Environmentally destructive development and climate change, alongside cultural decline, for example, impact communities’ abilities to respond to climate change and natural disasters. This project aims to address the resilience challenges faced by Indigenous communities by bringing together scientific and traditional ecological knowledge and utilizing data science and advanced sensing technologies to strengthen data sovereignty, resource sustainability, and climate resilience in Ojibwe communities. Understanding Indigenous resilience is a complex endeavor. Most resilience science generally develops in isolation from the communities experiencing climate change, natural disasters, and extreme weather events and focuses primarily on cities, large-scale food and energy production, water resources, and industrial systems. Integrating scientific and traditional ecological knowledge to strengthen resilience requires collaborative, sovereignty-affirming, tribally-driven research to address many fundamental questions: (1) How can transdisciplinary research best foster resilience in the face of long-term declines in environmental quality and short-term extreme events?; (2) How can scientific and traditional ecological knowledge be synergized to improve resilience in Indigenous communities?; (3) What mechanisms, tools, and technologies best support collection and synthesis of scientific and traditional ecological knowledge?; and, (4) What indicators can most effectively translate synthesized knowledge into improved resilience capabilities in Indigenous communities? This planning project brings together a core group of scientists in engineering, natural resource management, computer science, and social sciences with community leaders and knowledge holders to identify culturally relevant indicators for monitoring resilience and co-produce decision-support tools to strengthen community resilience. This will be achieved by: (1) developing a fundamental and respectful understanding of traditional ecological knowledge, systems, and co-production; (2) developing understanding of the threats to Ojibwe resilience; (3) establishing new methodologies incorporating the relationships of the Ojibwe Four Orders with state-of-the-art environmental sensing and data science to help identify and evaluate resilience solutions; and, (4) developing a framework to identify and analyze pathways to adaptation and/or increased resilience for Ojibwe nations/ The proposed plan will offer a resilience framework to develop monitoring, prediction, and response systems and decision-making tools that can be extended to other Native Nations and communities to advance cultural, food, and water security.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.

实践复原力对于奥及布威人的生活方式始终至关重要。基于地方的重要性，奥及布威人的世界观认识到等级依赖的四个秩序（物理、植物、动物、人类）以及文化安全对于维持这些秩序中的任何一个的重要性。例如，环境破坏性发展和气候变化以及文化衰落都会影响社区应对气候变化和自然灾害的能力。带来将科学和传统生态知识结合起来，利用数据科学和先进的传感技术来加强奥及布威社区的数据主权、资源可持续性和气候复原力，这是一项复杂的工作，大多数复原力科学通常是独立于经历气候变化的社区而发展的。 、自然灾害和极端天气事件，并主要关注城市、大规模粮食和能源生产、水资源和工业系统，整合科学和传统生态知识以增强抵御能力，需要协作、主权肯定、部落驱动的研究，以实现可持续发展。解决许多基本问题：（1）如何面对环境质量的长期下降和短期极端事件，跨学科研究能否培养最佳的抵御能力？；（2）如何协同科学和传统生态知识来提高土著社区的抵御能力？； 、工具和技术最能支持科学和传统生态知识的收集和综合？；以及，（4）哪些指标可以最有效地将综合知识转化为提高土著社区的抵御能力？工程学、自然资源管理、计算机科学和社会学与社区领袖和知识持有者合作，确定监测复原力的文化相关指标，并共同制定决策支持工具，以加强社区复原力。这将通过以下方式实现：（1）对传统生态知识、系统、系统形成基本和尊重的理解。和共同生产；(2) 加深对奥及布威复原力威胁的理解；(3) 建立新的方法，将奥及布威四秩序与最先进的环境传感和数据科学的关系结合起来，以帮助识别和评估复原力解决方案；以及(4) 制定一个框架，以确定和分析奥及布韦国家适应和/或增强复原力的途径/拟议的计划将提供一个复原力框架，以开发监测、预测和响应系统以及决策工具，这些系统和决策工具可以扩展到其他国家土著民族和社区促进文化、粮食和水安全。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
