Lisa Loseto is a research scientist at Fisheries and Oceans Canada, a federal government department whose regional offices include one in Winnipeg, where she is based. Some of Northern Canada’s Indigenous people have shaped her research into how beluga whales interact with their environments, and have taught her to rethink her own part in the scientific method.
What did the workshop reveal about the Indigenous participants’ perceptions of scientific publishing? The dense jargon and idiosyncratic structures of scientific publications make them difficult for people without a formal scientific education to jump into. Even people training to become scientists often don’t get involved in publishing until they’re in graduate school because there’s so much background knowledge that they need to have first.Perhaps, but trying to force Indigenous perspectives into a process that was created to advance Western priorities can come with its own problems.
Why would anyone want this? They haven't even written anything at all worth Reading, no science no history no archeology no geography...
That's horse in front of the carriage. For better science we need to improve access to education and scientific careers for the Indigenous people. Gods are my witness, we are scraping the bottom of the intellectual pool with middle class Whites here... And of course landback
How much is it to publish?
That is racist and condescending.
Magical thinking such as this is not conducive to scientific rigour.
Maybe charge less to publish, then?
