The unique insights provided by tribal nations and their Indigenous knowledges are recognized as being key to developing more sustainable futures. This project empowers Northwest tribes to take the lead in identifying research priorities for a sustainable regional systems research network that is driven by tribes for tribes. The project will bring together multiple organizations, disciplines, and tribes to co-produce a Sustainable Regional Systems Research Network (SRS RN). The proposed work will focus on climatic impacts on forests, foods, and water. Individual tribes have developed adaptation strategies grounded in Indigenous knowledges that could benefit Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities as the Northwest region of the USA faces rapid changes from climatic impacts.The research will be based on the socio-ecological system, a foundational concept in all Indigenous knowledge. The tribes of the Northwest view their own health and wellbeing as existing via mutually beneficial relationships among humans, nonhuman relatives, and the environment. In collaboration with the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community, the project will be led by the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians (ATNI), whose member tribes are implementing localized, sustainable adaptive resource management projects founded on Indigenous knowledge in the context of climate change that may be scalable to other regional systems. The 12-month project will consist of tribal representatives meeting on monthly calls and two in-person workshops to discuss their respective projects. Representatives will identify which projects might be suitable to scale to a regional system, identify existing research gaps, hone research questions, and develop hypotheses about the regional systems of study (forests, foods, and water, in the context of climate) in preparation for drafting an SRS RN full proposal. The sustainable resource management systems that result from adaptations based on Indigenous knowledge would be desirable societal outcomes for all communities.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.

部落民族提供的独特见解及其土著知识被认为是发展更可持续的未来的关键。该项目使西北部落能够带头确定由部落为部落驱动的可持续区域系统研究网络的研究重点。该项目将汇集多个组织、学科和部落，共同创建可持续区域系统研究网络（SRS RN）。拟议的工作将重点关注气候对森林、食物和水的影响。由于美国西北地区面临着气候影响带来的快速变化，各个部落制定了基于土著知识的适应战略，这些战略可以使土著和非土著社区受益。这项研究将基于社会生态系统，这是所有领域的基本概念。本土知识。西北部落认为，他们自己的健康和福祉是通过人类、非人类亲属和环境之间的互利关系而存在的。该项目将与斯维诺米什印第安部落社区合作，由西北印第安人附属部落 (ATNI) 领导，其成员部落正在实施基于气候变化背景下土著知识的本地化、可持续适应性资源管理项目，这些项目可能会可扩展到其他区域系统。这个为期 12 个月的项目将包括部落代表每月举行的电话会议和两次面对面的研讨会，以讨论各自的项目。代表们将确定哪些项目可能适合扩展到区域系统，确定现有的研究差距，完善研究问题，并提出有关区域研究系统（气候背景下的森林、食物和水）的假设，为起草 SRS RN 完整提案。基于土著知识的适应所产生的可持续资源管理系统将是所有社区理想的社会成果。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。
