Junaid works alongside his colleagues Joseph Pitawanakwat and Andrés Jiménez to support the regathering and education of Anishinaabe bird names and significant Indigenous bird knowledge. In this presentation, Junaid will highlight the work of his team and engage in a discussion about the depth of ecological knowledge housed in Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe language) bird names. Whereas western scientific naming focuses on the most obvious of physical characteristics, geographic range, or paying homage to Europeans, Anishinaabemowin allows us to learn about the roles these incredible flying beings play within our world. In turn, we can learn how best to help and support their populations for generations to come.This meeting will be hybrid – in person at Creative Nomad (23 Mississaga St W, Orillia, ON L3V 3A5) on the second floor and also on Zoom.
