This award supports dissertation research by a PhD student, Vera Solovyeva, to investigate of the effects of environmental change on two indigenous communities in northern Russia. This project seeks to understand how indigenous communities adapt to environmental change within a context of other dramatic changes, e.g., globalization, colonization, missionization, language loss, and others. The co-PI has strong community connections for the distribution of her work and this project will contribute to the completion of a PhD by an arctic indigenous woman, a highly underrepresented group in the social sciences.This is ethnographic research that explores the resilience of arctic peoples under conditions of environmental change in an under-researched region of the world. This research will contribute to out understanding of the resiliency of marginalized peoples who have undergone intense historical trauma and are now undergoing increasing social and economic pressures from environmental change. The research also investigates arctic indigenous attitudes regarding possible future policy options to mitigate environmental change.

该奖项支持博士生Vera Solovyeva的论文研究，以调查环境变化对俄罗斯北方两个土著社区的影响。 该项目力求了解土著社区如何在其他剧烈变化的背景下适应环境变化，例如，全球化、殖民化、传教化、语言丧失等等。 共同主要研究者与社区有着很强的联系，因此她的研究成果可以在社区中传播。该项目将帮助一名北极土著妇女完成博士学位，这是一个在社会科学领域代表性极低的群体。这是一项民族志研究，旨在探索北极人民在世界上一个研究不足的地区的环境变化条件下的适应能力。 这项研究将有助于我们了解边缘化人民的复原力，他们经历了严重的历史创伤，现在正在承受环境变化带来的越来越大的社会和经济压力。 该研究还调查了北极土著人对未来可能的政策选择的态度，以减轻环境变化。
