Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK)

Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) is a truly remarkable source of wisdom that has been carefully nurtured by indigenous communities across countless generations. It represents a deep-rooted understanding of the natural world, encompassing the delicate balance between plants, animals, and humans, as well as sustainable resource management practices.

The pairing of Western sciences with TEK is called "Two-Eyed Seeing." This is a very important and helpful way of implementing steps towards economic reconciliation between all treaty people who call Canada home. And yes, we are all treaty people.


TEK As Collaborative and Inclusive Consultation Process

In recent years, the recognition and incorporation of TEK into various sectors, including government, academia, and industry, has experienced a tremendous upsurge. This can be attributed to the growing acknowledgment of indigenous rights, the urgent need for sustainable development, and the realization that indigenous knowledge systems hold invaluable insights for addressing environmental challenges.

By wholeheartedly embracing the flourishing trends of TEK in Canada, businesses have the remarkable opportunity to demonstrate their unwavering dedication to environmental sustainability, social responsibility, and ethical practices. Not only does this elevate their reputation, but it also opens doors to fruitful collaborations and unprecedented growth prospects.

Incorporating TEK into business strategies benefits the communities from which this knowledge originates and allows organizations to tap into a wealth of Indigenous wisdom that can shape and inform their own practices.
