Environmental protection and conservation

The world is rapidly changing, and so is the way we think about our environment. Traditional ecological ways of knowing are beginning to gain prominence in the debate on how to best protect and nurture our planet. These ancient practices, passed down from generations of people living in harmony with their surroundings, offer us a valuable insight into how we can best take care of our environment.

Afforestation naturalized green spaces is one of the most important ways of utilizing Traditional ecological ways of knowing for environmental conservation and protection in an city park space. Through the afforestation process, native species of trees and plants are planted in areas that have been deforested or otherwise damaged by humans. As these ecosystems grow, they provide a range of benefits to local wildlife and humans alike, such as improved air and water quality, increased carbon storage, and reduced soil erosion.

These practices provide us with an understanding of how to sustainably use and manage our environment, ensuring that it remains healthy for generations to come. By utilizing these methods, we can promote healthy ecosystems, while also providing an opportunity for people to learn from the wisdom of the past.

Traditional ecological ways of knowing is also a powerful tool for environmental education. By introducing these ancient practices and philosophies to children, we can help foster a deeper understanding of our environment and the importance of preserving it and being stewards for species at risk. By engaging with the land and its inhabitants, we can help to create a stronger sense of connection and stewardship towards the natural world.

As the world continues to change and our understanding of the environment shifts, it’s important to remember the valuable lessons that can be learned from traditional ecological ways of knowing. Through the use of afforestation and other traditional practices, we can help to restore our ecosystems, while also gaining a deeper understanding of how to best take care of our planet.

Significant Role- The Old Bone Trail

The Old Bone Trail is a 1.5 km walking trail that follows the route buffalo bones were taken to the rail yards in Saskatoon. The Métis people were responsible for bringing the bones to the yards, and passing through the Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area RSBBAA on the way. The Indigenous and Métis history of the land that is part of the afforestation areas is one aspect that needs to be included through virtual markers on the digital wayfinding app.

The Old Bone Trail was created historically and we now remember the significant role buffalo bones played in the development of Saskatoon. The bones were collected by Métis people, who drove the bones to the rail yards in Saskatoon, passing through the RSBBAA on the way. The bones were then shipped to the USA where they were used for fertilizer, resulting in the growth of the city of Saskatoon.

The trail is also designed to help people understand the Indigenous and Métis history of the land that is part of the afforestation areas. The digital wayfinding app includes virtual markers that tell the story of the land, the people, and the buffalo bones story belonging to the Old Bone Trail heritage. Through these markers, users can learn about the history of the land, and how it was used by the Métis people to collect the bones and bring them to the rail yards.

The Old Bone Trail is a unique and important part of Saskatoon’s history. It is not only a reminder of the important role buffalo bones played in the development of the city, but also an opportunity to learn about the Indigenous and Métis history of the land. With the help of the digital wayfinding app, users can gain a deeper understanding of the land, the people, and the buffalo bones that were brought to the rail yards in Saskatoon.

We’re looking for someone who is passionate about cultural and environmental heritage and has a proven track record of writing and editing existing engaging and informative content. You should have a good understanding of the issues surrounding naturalized areas, as well as a strong grasp of the English language. Knowledge of the United Nations Decade on Indigenous Languages (Treaty Six) and traditional ecological knowledge is an asset.

The Sacredness of Water

The Sacredness of Water and Indigenous People’s Relationship with Nature

Water has long been seen as a source of spiritual and physical nourishment, and for Indigenous people, this has become an essential part of their heritage, connection to the land, and sense of identity. Water is seen as a symbol of life, as it is necessary for survival, and is an integral part of many Indigenous ceremonies and rituals.

The West Swale wetlands, in particular Chappell Marsh, has been an important location for many Indigenous people. It is a place of great spiritual significance, and is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna. It is also a popular tourist destination, and a place where local communities come to enjoy the natural beauty and tranquility of the area.

However, this relationship between Indigenous people and the land has been threatened by the human dimensions of water issues. Water contamination, overuse, and pollution have put a strain on the health of the wetlands and its inhabitants. Furthermore, the development of the wetlands for tourist and recreational activities has caused further disruption to the natural environment.

The human dimensions of water issues are not limited to the West Swale wetlands. Across Canada, Indigenous people are struggling to protect their sacred water sources from industrial and agricultural pollution, as well as residential development. This has had a devastating impact on the health and wellbeing of Indigenous people, and has caused a disconnection from the land that has been a part of their culture for centuries.

The sacredness of water and the importance of the relationship between Indigenous people and the land must be respected and honored. We must recognize the need for sustainable water management practices and the need to protect and conserve water sources, both in the West Swale wetlands and across Canada. We must also respect the spiritual significance of water for Indigenous people, and ensure that their connection to the land is preserved and celebrated. Only then can we begin to restore the balance between humans and nature.

Innovative App Editor – Writer for Cultural & Environmental Heritage Prairie Forest Guide. The ideal candidate for this position will have a deep understanding of Indigenous perspectives and cultures, as well as a passion for the environment and its protection. Experience in developing interpretive heritage stories and knowledge of life on land is a must. No technical coding required. We are looking for someone creative and innovative who can bring this project to life. If you are interested in this position, please submit your resume and cover letter to our website.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Wetlands Teachings

The Sacredness of Water and Indigenous People’s Relationship with Nature

Water is a precious, sacred resource that is essential to life. To Indigenous Peoples, water is not just a liquid, but rather a living entity that is connected to physical, spiritual, and cultural aspects of life. This relationship is deeply embedded in the culture of Indigenous Peoples, with many of their stories and teachings centered around water.

The West Swale wetlands, specifically Chappell Marsh, are home to many Indigenous Peoples, who have had a long and deep relationship with this area and the water that flows through it. In the traditional stories of the Indigenous Peoples, water is a powerful force that holds great spiritual significance. It is a symbol of life and brings healing, protection, and renewal.

This connection between Indigenous Peoples and the sacredness of water has profound implications for the human dimensions of water issues. For Indigenous Peoples, water is a source of life, and its protection is essential to their survival. For non-Indigenous park space users, including tourists and local communities, the issue of water and its sustainability is also of great importance.

The West Swale wetlands are vital to the health and well-being of both Indigenous Peoples and non-Indigenous park space users. By understanding and respecting the sacredness of water and the importance of its preservation, we can ensure that these wetlands are protected for future generations.

Water is a source of life, and the relationship between Indigenous Peoples and water is one that should be respected and cherished. In honoring this connection, we can ensure that the West Swale wetlands remain a vibrant and healthy ecosystem for all who inhabit it.

Exploration of the components of these ecosystems

As society continues to become increasingly aware of the importance of protecting and preserving the environment, the need for accurate interpretation of the natural world has become increasingly important. Interpretation, the practice of providing meaningful and useful information about the natural world, is essential for both indigenous and non-indigenous people to be able to understand and appreciate the complexity of our ecosystems. By learning about the various botanical and ecological systems, we can better understand the importance of afforestation, a process of planting trees in areas that have been deforested, for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of Life on Land.

Interpretation has long been used by indigenous cultures to understand their local environment and the networks of relationships within it. Indigenous knowledge of botanical and ecological systems has been used to sustainably manage the environment and to provide important services to the local population. This knowledge is often passed down through generations, with each generation adding to the collective understanding of the environment. By learning from indigenous cultures and applying their knowledge to afforestation efforts, we can improve our understanding of the natural world and how to better protect it.

Non-indigenous people can also benefit from interpretation, as it helps us to better understand the complexity of natural ecosystems. By learning about the flora, fauna, and other components of these ecosystems, we can better appreciate the importance of afforestation and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of Life on Land. Furthermore, this knowledge can be used to inform iNaturalist sightings, a practice of recording species of plants and animals that have been identified in a specific area. By recording these sightings, we can build a better understanding of the local environment and its changing dynamics, allowing us to make more informed decisions about afforestation efforts.

Interpretation is an essential tool for both indigenous and non-indigenous people to understand the natural world and to protect and preserve it. By learning about the various botanical and ecological systems, we can gain a better understanding of the importance of afforestation and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of Life on Land. This knowledge can also be used to inform iNaturalist sightings, allowing us to better track changes in the environment and make informed decisions about afforestation efforts. As society continues to become increasingly aware of the importance of protecting and preserving the environment, interpretation will become increasingly important for us to understand and appreciate the complexity of our ecosystems.

The ideal candidate for this contract position should have a degree in education or a related field and experience in outdoor and environmental education learning experiences. You should be comfortable working in a team environment and have an eye for detail. Additionally, you should be passionate about the Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area and the George Genereux Urban Regional Park and their unique cultural and environmental heritage.

If you are interested in this contract position for Stage One Editor/Writer for Cultural and Environmental Heritage Prairie Forest Guide App and think you have the qualifications and experience necessary to edit existing interpretive stories and write new heritage stories, we look forward to hearing from you.

Interpretation: A Key to Ecosystem Restoration in the 21st Century

The United Nations has declared 2021-2030 the Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, a groundbreaking initiative to address the pressing global challenge of environmental degradation. To ensure the success of the Decade, many new and innovative approaches to environmental stewardship must be adopted. One such approach is the use of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) in afforestation areas.

TEK is the accumulated traditional knowledge, practices and beliefs of indigenous and local communities that relate to their environment and the sustainable use of natural resources. It is based on generations of observation, experimentation, and adaptation to the environment, and is often deeply embedded within the cultural and spiritual values of the community. In afforestation areas, TEK can be used to identify the traditional and medicinal uses of the plants found in the area, protect species at risk, and manage the impact of invasive species.

Traditional and medicinal uses of plants in afforestation areas can be determined by tapping into TEK. Through TEK, local communities can identify the plants that grow in the area, their medicinal properties, and the traditional uses of the plants. This knowledge can be used to develop a comprehensive inventory of the area’s plant species and their uses, which can inform the conservation and management of the area.

TEK can also be used to identify species at risk and protect them from further degradation. Indigenous and local communities often have specialized knowledge on the natural environments in their area, including which species are rare or endangered. This knowledge can be used to prioritize conservation efforts and take action to protect these species.

Finally, TEK can be used to mitigate the impacts of invasive species in afforestation areas. TEK can provide information on how to identify, monitor, and manage invasive species, and on traditional methods for controlling them. For example, local communities can be engaged in efforts to remove invasive species and restore native habitats.

The 21st century must be one of environmental stewardship. The United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration provides a unique opportunity to put TEK to use in afforestation areas, to protect species at risk, and to address the impacts of invasive species. By incorporating TEK into the restoration process, the Decade can be a crucial step in the global fight against environmental degradation.

Are you a Cultural and Environmental Heritage Writer with a passion for outdoor education, reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous persons, and Aboriginal knowledge, culture and ethics?

If you are an experienced Cultural and Environmental Heritage Writer who is passionate about reconciliation and cross-cultural learning, we want to hear from you for stage one of this contract position! Please send us your resume and a writing sample for consideration.

Enriching Ecological Knowledge

As the world continues to face environmental challenges, the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021–2030) provides an important opportunity to restore and protect our planet. One key element of this effort is the inclusion of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) in virtual smartphone applications.

TEK is a culturally based body of knowledge and practices developed through generations of observation and experience within a particular region and ecosystem. It encompasses a range of information including traditional uses of plants, the protection of species at risk, the management of invasive species, and the impact of invasives.

By incorporating TEK into virtual smartphone applications, users of the app can gain a better understanding of the natural environment and how to protect and enhance it. This knowledge can be applied to afforestation projects that help to restore ecosystems. Users can learn about the different species of plants found in the area, their traditional and medicinal uses, and how to protect them from becoming extinct. Additionally, users can learn how to identify and manage invasive species and reduce the impact of their spread.

Involving users in the restoration of ecosystems through virtual applications is a powerful way to increase environmental awareness and create a sense of responsibility. By providing access to TEK and the ability to apply it, virtual apps can empower users to become more active in the protection of the environment.

Ultimately, the inclusion of TEK in virtual apps can have a positive impact on the success of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. By providing users with an understanding of traditional ecological practices, these apps can help to restore and protect the planet for generations to come.

This is a great opportunity to bring your knowledge, skills, and passion to the table and help create a valuable and engaging resource for the community. If you believe you’re the right candidate for this Cultural and Environmental Heritage Writer contract position stage one, please submit your resume, a cover letter, and samples of your work to friendsafforestation@gmail.com for consideration. We look forward to hearing from you!
