Voices from the field 37 – Indigenous knowledges and pandemic science: A conversation with Dr. Nicole Redvers
In this episode, guest host Nicole Halbauer speaks with Dr. Nicole Redvers, a member of the Denı́nu Kų́ę́ First Nation and Associate Professor at Western University. Dr. Redvers contrasts Western science and Indigenous science, details the worldviews that underpin and shape them, and evaluates their potential to mitigate complex planetary health problems such as pandemics.
According to Dr. Redvers, an Indigenous approach to pandemics would include recognizing and better understanding the interconnectedness between humans, animals, and the environment, which could lead to taking preventive measures like tackling deforestation and loss of biodiversity. She also recommends engaging Indigenous people and communities in areas like education, international policy, environmental advocacy, and land stewardship.
Finally, Dr. Redvers describes her own path from a small Indigenous community in the Northwest Territories to becoming an internationally recognized scholar, realizing early on the importance of studying in, and about, Western institutions and knowledge systems in order to change them, and better “leverage them to do good”.
