NAS 265 - Indigenous Perceptions of Water

3 Credits


Students study Indigenous teachings about water and how this knowledge pertains to efforts to protect and sustain watersheds. Comparing local knowledge and advocacy—for example, Anishinaabe Water Keepers—with Indigenous perspectives on water elsewhere in the world, students enrich their understanding of how culture informs water policies and management. Visits with guest speakers and trips to local waterways will complement course topics and readings.
