Bering Strait region Tribal consortium Kawerak published a language glossary which provides terms in research, science and policy in English, Inupiaq, St. Lawrence Island Yupik, and Yup’ik. The glossary is part of Kawerak’s ‘Knowledge Sovereignty and the Indigenization of Knowledge.’ The Indigenization of Knowledge informs the community about Tribal and traditional knowledge. Kawerak Social Science Program Director Julie Raymond-Yakoubian emphasized the relevance of indigenous knowledge today and wants to make sure that Indigenous voices are heard. “What knowledge sovereignty and the indigenization of knowledge means is really bringing to the forefront Tribal knowledge. It’s important, it’s value[d], and ensuring it is used in all the appropriate contexts where it can be used –which is basically everywhere! And making sure that Indigenous voices are being heard and taking a lead in matters that impact Indigenous people,” Raymond-Yakoubian said. The language glossary is “one small step”
