Abstract

This project examines the use of podcasting as a platform to advocate for Indigenous Environmental Justice. In this research I aim to generate an understanding of how colonialism and climate change impose upon the movement for Indigenous food sovereignty through environmental injustice. Primary academic research for this project consisted primarily of conducting interviews with relevant knowledge holders, mostly from the local Anishinaabe community, which were recorded, edited and overdubbed with commentary in order to create a cohesive narrative for knowledge mobilization. Secondary academic research for this project included extensive literature reviews and case study considerations across global contexts. Empowerment of Indigenous peoples in their self-determination and governance over their respective territories is necessary for developing climate action strategies that are rooted in the reclamation of traditional practices and is identified as essential to adopting a decolonizing approach to community development and environmental conservation.
