Indigenous perspectives on studying our Eastern Sierra home

Abstract

In this Q&A-style contribution to the anniversary volume, Owens Valley Paiute (Nüümü) and Shoshone (Newe) who work on environmental matters briefly share about their homeland and experiences. Worldwide, scientists and Indigenous peoples now acknowledge the benefits of building relationships and working together to address environmental and resource challenges, and this opportunity exists in the Eastern Sierra.
