“I’ve been drawn into cultural heritage through learning about the relationships between people and nature. And I’ve come to that from the biological side but it’s about connecting that to spirituality as well.” -@AdamCMarkham #2023RLDConference

“Knowing a culture and religion deeply, even if you aren’t part of it, allows you to better relate and do research in places that you understand. It gives me the strength to better understand the perspective of the people I was working with” -@SalmaSabourG

[FletcherRLD @Fletcher_RLD]

“All systems that we call cultural and natural are in fact complex social ecological systems and they tell stories about complex narratives of risks and loss to climate change.” -@SalmaSabourG

“The changes in the world are impacting indigenous values. And when climate change appears in the picture it increase the risk of loss of ways of life, values and knowledge.”

“It’s not about conservation or preservation it’s about the amalgamation of our culture that is distinct & tied to this land. How do we protect & continue cultural heritage despite climate change & the misrepresentation of indigenous cultures?” -Queen Quet of @gullahgeechee

“Climate change is an additive force. We need to better understand the risks posed to cultural heritage by climate change, address adaptive capacity and take action to reduce emissions and increase resilience.” - @adamcmarkham #RLD2023Conference
