Yes, thank you.
There are a lot of examples from the north of knowledge systems coming together. It's not necessarily one system being integrated into another, but as my colleague says, it's braided or woven. They complement each other and lead to an overall more robust understanding of the situation, of an issue.
I'm most familiar with work on contaminants through the northern contaminants program. Bringing indigenous knowledge-holders together with scientists leads to better science, to better questions that are asked. It's more informative for policy and it gives a much more thorough understanding. If we sent only scientists to look at contaminant levels in a particular food source, wanting to know how it affects health, then they'd need to know what parts of the animal are consumed, at what frequency and in what seasons. All of these affect the contaminant levels.
Indigenous knowledge might not give you the micrograms per gram of contaminant levels, but it will tell you really important information that's going to inform health risk advisories, for example. It's by working together from the earliest stages, shaping the research questions together, and finding the areas of common interest and concern that lead to a thorough understanding.
