This episode is our second installment on the Living Relations partnership, focusing on transnational collaboration between Indigenous and settler partners from Canada and Aotearoa (New Zealand). Hosts Peter Andrée and Tehya Quachegan are joined by project co-director John Reid to share insights from members of its Indigenous Advisory Circle and Research Circle.

Building on the themes introduced in part 1, this conversation turns to the connections between land, water, and language; the role of Indigenous rights and governance in shaping climate-resilient futures; and the revitalization of food systems rooted in Indigenous values and knowledge. Together, the voices in this episode reflect on what it means to revitalize food systems through Indigenous governance, community-led research, and cross-cultural partnerships — and why revitalizing Indigenous food systems matters not only for Indigenous peoples but for all of us navigating the challenges of the Anthropocene.
