Visions of Adaptation: Indigenous Video Production in a Transforming Greenland

该奖项将为北极研究中心的副研究员亨特·斯奈德（Hunter Snyder）提供支持，他将前往格陵兰岛与当地学者和社区成员进行论文改进拨款提案前的咨询。此外，CoPI将在格陵兰为他的Photovoices方法论进行概念验证，与当地社区青年一起进行视频教育和制作培训。视频的最终主题是因纽特人如何平衡传统狩猎和捕鱼与新发展的采矿业的未来工作。建立在4000多年因纽特人讲故事的基础上，而CoPI？凭借在视频制作和民族志方面的专业知识，研究人员希望与格陵兰人合作，通过视觉媒体捕捉和分析他们关于不断变化的生计，不同类型劳动的生活经验以及社会和环境变化的当地意义的知识。

This award will provide support for CoPI Hunter Snyder, who is a research associate at the Arctic Studies Center, to travel to Greenland to do pre-Dissertation Improvement Grant proposal consultation with local scholars and community members. In addition, the CoPI would do a proof of concept for his Photovoices methodology in Greenland by engaging in trial video education and production training with local community youth. The eventual topic for the video is how the Inuit balance between traditional hunting and fishing and prospective work in the newly developing mining industry. Building on over 4,000 years of Inuit storytelling, and the CoPI?s expertise in video production and ethnography, the researcher hopes to collaborate with Greenlanders to capture and analyze their knowledge about changing livelihoods, the lived experience of varying types of labor, and the local meaning of social and environmental change through visual media.
