在太平洋岛屿区域的小岛屿发展中国家，这里称为大洋洲，由于普遍存在的基督教和教育制度边缘化土著知识和行为方式，殖民经历的暴力一直延续到今天。占主导地位的全球发展范式加剧了这种心态，将本土认识世界和生活在世界中的方式置于所有话语的边缘。气候变化突出了土著知识体系的重要性，这些知识体系本身就是关于可持续性和平衡的--与地球的节奏和周期--我们已知的宇宙--和谐地生活。本文探讨了监护权的本土概念，以及人类在已知宇宙中与土地、天空和海洋交流的角色。它还提出了这样一种观点，即艺术；遗产和当代艺术对关于可持续发展的有意义的论述都至关重要。
In the context of the Small Island Developing States (SIDs) in the Pacific island region, referred to here, as Oceania, the violence of the colonial experience is perpetuated to this day by widespread Christianity and education systems which marginalize indigenous knowledges and ways of being and doing. Dominant global development paradigms exacerbate this mindset relegating indigenous ways of knowing the world and being in it to the periphery of all discourse. Climate change brings to the fore the significance of indigenous knowledge systems which are inherently about sustainability and balance – living in harmony with the rhythms and cycles of the planet – our known cosmos. This paper explores the indigenous conceptions of custodianship and the role of the human within the known universe, in communion with land, sky and sea. It also presents the view that the arts; both heritage and contemporary are critical to meaningful discourse about sustainability.
