Voices from Maple Nation: Indigenous women's climate summit

Abstract

Indigenous cultures of the U.S. Northeast are in the midst of a cultural revitalization. Among the hallmarks of this renaissance are a strengthening of forest-based practices that are at the heart of Indigenous cultures and identities (see, for example, Daigle et al. in this issue). Unfortunately, climate change and its impacts on forests represent a new and intensifying challenge to forests and Indigenous communities throughout the nation (Voggesser et al. 2013), including New England and New York (Baumflek 2018, Janowiak et al. 2018).
