This award supports the participation of students and indigenous peoples in a plenary panel at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Economic Botany (SEB). The meeting will be hosted by the University of Cincinnati on June 2-6, 2019. The theme of the meeting is, "The Future of Forests: Perspectives from Indigenous Peoples, Traditional Practices, and Conservation." It is well-known that the world's forests are important for a sustainable economic future, it is also the case that they are threatened by increased demand for forest products, population growth, climate change, and uncertain fire suppression policies. Globally and nationally, there are ongoing debates on various topics about forest management including sustainability, biodiversity, and economic impacts. This timely panel brings together anthropologists, foresters, botanists, and ecologists to discuss forest management on four continents from multiple perspectives.The panelists include ethno-ecologists, whose research highlights indigenous agroforest management practices. Cultural anthropology provides a unifying theoretical perspective and a set of methodological approaches, including participant observation and linguistic competency, which underpin the research of the presenters. Participation in the meeting will enable students to gain invaluable experience at an international meeting, assimilate new idea, and expand their professional networks and opportunities for collaboration. The conference organizers anticipate publication of the plenary panel and selected organized sessions in a special volume of Economic Botany.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项支持学生和土著人民参加经济植物学会（SEB）2019年年会的全体小组。会议将于2019年6月2日至6日由辛辛那提大学主办。会议的主题是“森林的未来：土著人民、传统习俗和养护的观点”。“众所周知，世界森林对可持续的经济未来至关重要，但森林也受到森林产品需求增加、人口增长、气候变化和不确定的灭火政策的威胁。在全球和国家范围内，关于森林管理的各种主题，包括可持续性，生物多样性和经济影响，正在进行辩论。这个及时的小组汇集了人类学家，林业学家，植物学家和生态学家，从多个角度讨论四大洲的森林管理。小组成员包括民族生态学家，他们的研究重点是土著农林管理实践。文化人类学提供了一个统一的理论视角和一套方法论方法，包括参与者观察和语言能力，这是主持人研究的基础。参加会议将使学生在国际会议上获得宝贵的经验，吸收新的想法，并扩大他们的专业网络和合作机会。会议组织者预计全体小组和选定的有组织的会议在经济植物学的一个特殊卷的出版物。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
