About this listen

*TRIGGER WARNING: discussion of systemic racism and inequality were discussed and may be triggering to those that have experienced similar situations*

Welcome to the second episode of Sense of the Arctic, a podcast miniseries from the APECS Science and Diplomacy Project Group in collaboration with the Polar Times.

This series highlights the importance and implementation of scientific collaboration with Arctic communities through community-based monitoring (CBM), co-production of knowledge, and equitable data management.

Our second guest is Margaret Rudolf, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, working at the International Arctic Research Center with the Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy and the Research Networking Activities for Sustained Coordinated Observations of Arctic Change (CoObs RNA). Margaret talked with us about her experiences as an Inupiat woman in the sciences that led her into her current field of research in evaluation and success metrics of Indigenous-led co-production of knowledge and the role of boundary spanners in enhancing scientist-community relations.
