FIRST represents an interdisciplinary network of Native scholars all working at the intersection of Indigenous and Western scientific traditions to explore how Indigenous communities are utilizing both traditions to meet their research needs. The network’s Steering Committee members represent Indigenous communities from across the United States, including Alaska and Hawai‘i, and are employed at tribal colleges, Indigenous non-profit organizations, and research universities.
The FIRST Network collaborates with First Alaskans Institute, Ngā Pae of te Māramatanga, Center for Native Peoples and the Environment, and The Cultural Conservancy.
Mentoring Our Own Native Scientists (MOONS) was held from September 19-21, 2018 at Haskell Indian Nations University (HINU) in Lawrence, Kansas.
