Call for Papers: A Special Issue on Urban Indigenous Economic Development (Volume 16, No. 1, 2026)

2025-02-05

This special issue focuses on the urban indigenous community economic development. As Indigenous peoples worldwide have shifted from primarily rural to mostly urban, they have developed a network of service, cultural and community development organizations over the last half-century. Newhouse in xxx described urban Indigenous economies as interwoven economies that weave Indigenous institutions and development efforts with those of the surrounding communities and economies.

					View Vol. 15 No. 1 (2025): Muiwatmnej Etuaptmumk: “Two-eyed seeing from vision to action”

This special issue was inspired by a conference held in Membertou, Nova Scotia, in the fall of 2023. The conference, Muiwatmnej Etuaptmumk: “Two-eyed seeing from vision to action,” was organized by the Bras d’Or Lakes Collaborative Planning Initiative (the CEPI) to address environmental policy gaps. Etuaptmumk, a Mi’kmaw word translated to “Two-Eyed Seeing.” (www.brasdorCEPI.ca ) is an approach that weaves between Western and Indigenous knowledge systems to create space for collaborative co-learning across different ontologies and epistemologies (Bartlett, Marshall, & Marshall, 2012; Denny & Fanning, 2016). This special issue shares some wonderful and thought-provoking papers, including the work of Indigenous and non- Indigenous scholars and communities of interest who are actively applying the tenets of Two-Eyed Seeing. In this way, we extend the dialogue beyond the conference network to those who wish to share their experiences and research using Etuaptmumk/Two- Eyed Seeing as a guiding principle for your own work.
