People & forests have been affecting each other’s ecology & survival for ages. This interaction challenges nature-culture dichotomy based conservation. Ignoring local forest ontology can reinforce inequalities and reproduce colonialism through conservation.1/6 @SCB_SSWG #SSWGTC20 Image
Pewen & people form each other. Highly-caloric branches & seeds fuel house & body; by gathering in the forest social norms of respect & care to #pewen are transmitted; reinforcing social bonds. Forests have been shaped by seed selection/dispersion/planting/fire use. 2/6 #SSWGTC20 Image
Pewen has protected Pewenche (people=che) from colonial expansion/hunger/cold. Pewenche protect #pewen with traditional harvest norms, fire brigades, reclaiming land, pushing env laws. Trees & people are entangled in cultural, spiritual and economic relations. 3/6 #SSWGTC20 Image
