SGER: Making a New Collection of Indigenous Resources About Arctic Climate Change Available to the Public for Research and Education

ABSTRACT ARC #0503460该SGER提案旨在使有关北极气候变化的土著知识广泛用于研究和教育。该项目是利用芬兰非营利组织Snowchange收集的材料开发一个土著科学数字图书馆。Snowchange数据包括音频，视频，照片，土著艺术品，日记文本和研究笔记-所有关于北极社区的气候变化观测。该项目将利用最佳做法开发一个标准格式的数据库，收集原始数据，编制研究人员可以使用的元数据，并开发一种土著社区和教育界可以使用的格式。这些资料将以可用和可获得的格式提供给科学界和土著社区。此外，该项目还与当地土著组织密切合作，包括扩大土著人民对数字科学图书馆工作的参与，以及向土著社区和学校分发材料。

ABSTRACT ARC #0503460This SGER proposal is to make Indigenous knowledge about Arctic climate change widely available for research and education. The project is to develop a Digital Library of Indigenous Science (DLISR) using materials collected by Snowchange, a non-profit organization in Finland. The Snowchange data consists of audio, video, photographs, indigenous artwork, diary text, and research notes - all on climate change observations from Arctic communities. This project will develop a database in a standardized format utilizing best practices, digitize the primary data, produce the metadata that can be utilized by researchers, and develop a format that will be accessible to indigenous and education communities. This information will be made available to the science community and to indigenous communities in a useable and accessible format. In addition, the project is in close cooperation with local native organizations and includes widening the participation of indigenous people in the digital science library effort, as well as providing for the dissemination of materials to indigenous communities and schools.
