Abstract Indigenous peoples’ efforts toward environmental conservation are indivisible from their cultural identity and their social and political organizations. Indigenous resurgence, including the reinvigoration and reestablishment of Indigenous ways of living, are linked to the management, restoration, and conservation of marine and coastal ecosystems around the world. However, there remains a significant gap in the recognition and support of Indigenous governance systems in international policy discussions regarding conservation work. As a way to address this gap, we offer an analysis of marine Indigenous community-led conservation initiatives from around the world that were recipients of the UNDP Equator Prize, framed by initial research on Indigenous-led conservation in British Columbia, Canada. We highlight specific Indigenous governance strategies undertaken by such communities that foster both marine resource conservation and stewardship. The strategies we identified included practicing Indigenous traditional resource management, protection of traditional territories, Indigenous-led actions of environmental conservation, and data collection and monitoring. We also identified networking and collaboration with non-Indigenous supporters, as was reinvestment into education and capacity-building within the community. We conclude with concrete policy suggestions drawn from these cases that can help strengthen the leadership and self-determination of Indigenous peoples on local resource and environmental issues, and aid in much broader conservation efforts globally.

土著复兴在海洋保护中的作用

摘要 土著人民对环境保护的努力与他们的文化身份以及他们的社会和政治组织密不可分。土著复兴,包括振兴和重建土著生活方式,与世界各地海洋和沿海生态系统的管理、恢复和保护有关。然而,在关于保护工作的国际政策讨论中,对土著治理系统的认可和支持仍然存在重大差距。作为弥补这一差距的一种方式,我们分析了世界各地获得联合国开发计划署赤道奖的海洋土著社区主导的保护倡议,这些倡议以加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省土著主导保护的初步研究为框架。我们强调了这些社区采取的促进海洋资源保护和管理的具体土著治理战略。我们确定的策略包括实践土著传统资源管理、保护传统领土、土著主导的环境保护行动以及数据收集和监测。我们还确定了与非土著支持者的网络和合作,以及对社区内教育和能力建设的再投资。最后,我们从这些案例中得出了具体的政策建议,这些建议可以帮助加强土著人民在当地资源和环境问题上的领导力和自决权,并有助于在全球范围内开展更广泛的保护工作。
