Ethnobotanical Map
This project entails the creation of an interactive map that has pins on campus showing locations of plants that have ethnobotanical characteristics and relationships. This phase of the project has been completed, and has shifted into a project titled "Place Based Learning Practices Project". See project page here.
Food Summit
The Food Summit 2022 is a food justice focused event that took place during the first 3 weeks of April 2022. The primary goal of the Food Summit was to generate awareness of the BIPOC contributions and knowledge of food and discuss how the HSU community can build food resiliency and equity. The total Spring 2022 budget approved for this event is estimated to be $29,100 in addition to a $2,000 match funding given by Food Summit partner, La Comida Nos Une. $10,000 of the Food Summit Budget was allocated to the Indigenous Foods Festival, organized by the Rou Dalaguur Food Sovereignty Lab.
Indigenous Foods Festival
This idea requested funding for the second Indigenous Foods Festival (IFF) at Cal Poly Humboldt, which previously had 350 attendees. The Indigenous Foods Festival is focused on uplifting Indigenous Food Sovereignty across many regions. This inspiring event centered around the important work that folks across communities are doing to elevate Indigenous knowledges and foodways.
Place Based Learning Practices
This project is an extension of the Ethnobotanical Mapping project (See project page here) and is thus sharing funds. From Karley Rojas, 05/03/2024- "The ‘Place Based Learning Practices Project: a diptych case study of more than human relationality at the tribal and western institutional interface’ is my thesis project, within the Environment and Community graduate program which has adopted the Ethnobotanical Mapping project within its scope.
