Drawing on various scholars, Dr Zoe Todd critiques the push to 'braid' Indigenous and settler paradigms in conservation.

Join the Anti-Oppression Knowledge Integrators working group for an open discussion about the place of anti-oppression work (e.g. decolonization, justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion) at the University of Waterloo.
