Our lands tell our stories: supporting Indigenous co-led research through the Indigenous Foods Knowledges Network
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Indigenous Foods Knowledges Network (IFKN) brings together Indigenous researchers and community leaders from the Arctic and U.S. Southwest along with non-Indigenous researchers to foster cross-cultural interdisciplinary knowledge exchange about sovereignty of Indigenous foods. IFKN draws on cultural and scientific expertise from shared cultural protocols and practices, Indigenous Knowledges, Earth sciences, and social sciences to better understand reclamation, preservation, and perpetuation of traditional food practices to sustain Indigenous food sovereignty in a rapidly changing global environment. In this article, we discuss how IFKN developed a methodology prioritizing relational accountability encompassing both people and place while establishing a framework for collaborative learning that centers Indigenous Knowledge systems. We provide examples from our roles as Tribal community members, university researchers, and network members in creating an organizational framework for this collaborative work and connecting it to community, university, and research protocols and practices. We further describe the ways that IFKN adapted during the COVID-19 pandemic to continue to remotely co-produce knowledge and amplify concerns and priorities of community partners through non-academic settings.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
