SEJ Webinar: Covering Climate Solutions — Indigenous Communities and Nature-Based Approaches [22]

Join us virtually at 1:00 p.m. ET for a discussion on how Indigenous peoples practiced "sustainable management" efforts long before modern society began talking about conservation, environmental protection or climate change and how their voices can greatly enrich environmental reporting. How can environmental journalists best incorporate Indigenous voices into their climate change and sustainability stories without misrepresenting intent or disrespecting cultures?
