Consultation & Partnership
> Environmental Services

As the world struggles
to use resources sustainably,
traditional knowledge must be considered equally
with scientific knowledge.

Environmental Services: The rapid encroachment of development and urbanization is creating pressures on the environment unknown to previous generations. But, we all need natural resources. When traditional knowledge is combined with scientific knowledge, new models for landscape management are produced that are measurable; quantitatively and qualitatively, traditionally and scientifically. The answer to today’s environmental challenges is a balanced approach.

Our workers have a unique understanding of natural systems; they are a vital asset for developers working in the Aseniwuche Winewak Nation’s Traditional Lands. The historical and cultural information our workers know about geography and ecosystems is invaluable. When they recreate a stream bed, they know what it used to look like. They understand what fish need. They care it is done right because their grandfather may have fished there, and they hope their grandchildren will be able to. You can’t place a value on that kind of commitment.
