This week, on Good Medicine with Hetxw’ms Gyetxw…

We discuss “Bridging Indigenous Knowledge with Climate Action, and Empowering Indigenous Voices in Climate Research”

In this conversation, Hetxw’ms Gyetxw (Brett Huson) shares his journey as an Indigenous researcher and advocate for climate change adaptation, emphasizing the importance of Indigenous knowledge in combating climate change and the challenges of integrating it into mainstream research. He highlights the significance of building relationships with Indigenous communities, storytelling, and empowering the next generation to share their own narratives, while reflecting on the support he receives from his family and community.

We also discuss Indigenous peoples’ long history of ecological stewardship, ethical considerations in research, and the role of ceremony in establishing trust. Personal support systems are essential for resilience in advocacy work, and continuous learning is vital for personal and community growth. Key statements include: “Building better relationships is key,” “I couldn’t do anything without the support of my family,” and “It’s time for us to write our own stories.”
