Indigenous Policy journal is in transition having recently become a publication of the World Social Sciences Association (WSSA), with a home in its American Indian and Indigenous Studies Section. We continue to network with the Indigenous Studies Network (ISN) - where we originated - and other organizations and groups. The transition, including considering a number of change in journal operation, has caused our article referring process to barely function, but we anticipate that it will be fully operational again, shortly. This will be my last issue. It has been a pleasure editing it since I first turned the ISN newsletter into this journal more than 20 years ago. As I am now 85 with less energy and more responsibilities at home it is time to pass on all the editing to our new editors. I have carried the entire issue of late as they have been busy with the transition which I hope they can complete shortly. Of necessity this issue is shorter than usual, but I believe still contains a great deal of useful information, research and views. In some cases where I have not had time to add that all that I usually put in I have provided links for that information or writings. May your days ahead be very fine. - Steve Sachs Published: 2024-03-15 Download the Full Issue Winter 2024 (Full Issue) PDF Upcoming Events Upcoming Events (Winter 2024) HTML Ongoing Activities Ongoing Activities (Winter 2024) HTML Indigenous Developments Indigenous Developments (Winter 2024) HTML Dialoguing The Earth Is in the Hands of the Fossil Fuel Industry: COP28 Fails to Deliver Urgent Action on Phasing Out Fossil Fuels Bryan Bixcul HTML International Indigenous Peoples Forum on Climate Change (IIPFCC)’s Closing Statement at COP28 International Indigenous Peoples Forum on Climate Change HTML "COP28: Indigenous Leaders From Around the World Unite in Historical Call for Consent on Mining Projects During Energy Transition" Cultural Survival HTML IEN AT COP28, WEEK ONE INDIGENOUS Environmental Network, "IEN at COP28, Week One" - Closing Statement of the International Indigenous Peoples’ Forum on Climate Change at UNFCCC SB58 Indigenous Environmental Network HTML Climate is the Fight of Our Lifetime Our Federal Budget Should Reflect That Lindsay Koshgarian, Alliyah Lusuegro HTML Biden Proposal for Fossil Fuel Leasing on Public Lands Called ’Massive Climate Failure’ Jessica Corbett HTML Leave No One Behind: We Need a Rights-Based Approach to Climate Displacement Anju Anna John, Stefano Balbi HTML SIRGE Coalition Statement on the Critical Raw Materials Act Thirty Years After The Revolutionary Women’s Law, They Denounce Permanent War” Against The Peoples Cultural Survival HTML Thirty Years After The Revolutionary Women’s Law, They Denounce Permanent War” Against The Peoples Edicion Americas HTML Indigenous Voices bring a reality check at the Assembly of The Peoples of The Earth for The Amazon Gabriel Leao HTML Indigenous Peoples Continue 100-year Fight Against Large-Scale Gold Mining in the Philippines Dev Kumar Sunuwar HTML Decolonizing Policy Research as Restorative Research Justice: Applying an Indigenous Policy Research Framework (IPRF) Binish Ahmed HTML Research Notes A defeat and some successes with a bitter after taste Survival International HTML Crimes against the Climate: Violence and Deforestation in the Amazon International Crisis Group HTML Birds and Transmission Report: Building the Grid Birds Need National Audubon Society HTML Canadian wildfires hit Indigenous communities hard Noah Berger, Tammy Weber HTML The Violent Cartography of Lithium in Brazil: Indigenous and Traditional Communities Struggle with the Giant of Transition Minerals in Brazil Edson Krenak HTML Blood Carbon: how a carbon offset scheme makes millions from Indigenous land in Northern Kenya Simon Counsell HTML Giving a Platform to Indigenous Water Protectors: The Fifth Mni Ki Wakan Summit United Indigenous Water Protectors from across the Globe Amelia Schafer HTML The Push To Dig Up Rare Earth Materials In The Black Hills Tatyana Novikova HTML Challenging Mining Corporations at the International Level: What can you do when you’ve run out of options at the local and national levels?

The dissertation coverage includes all languages and is international in scope as far as Dissertation Abstracts covers. This includes most European universities, South African universities, and a few in the Far East. They do not cover all the universities in the world, but do a pretty good job covering first world universities. There is no coverage of Latin American universities’ dissertations. The data base is updated in each Winter and Summer issue of IPJ , and sometimes between issues. Since ProQuest, the provider of the lists of dissertations from which Jonathan and Jay find Indigenous dissertations, no longer goes by months/years there will be titles from various years added in the updates. Dissertation abstracts Data Base 2006 – the present: http://indigenouspolicy.org/index.php/ipj/thesis IPJ is available on the web with e-mail notification of new issues at no charge. Indigenous Policy puts out two regular issues a year (Summer and Winter), and since summer 2006 we have published occasional special issues. We are seeking additional editors, columnists and commentators for regular issues, and editors or editorial groups for special issues, and short articles for each issue.
