Indigenizing the next decade of astronomy in Canada
H. Neilson, L. Rousseau-Nepton, S. Lawler, and K. Spekkens. (2019)cite arxiv:1910.02976Comment: 11 pages. Community paper submitted to the Canadian Long Range Plan 2020, https://casca.ca/?page_id=11499lrp2020/.
Abstract
(Abridged) The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada published its
calls to action in 2015 with 94 recommendations. Many of these 94
recommendations are directly related to education, language, and culture, some
of which the Canadian Astronomy community can address and contribute to as part
of reconciliation. The Canadian Astronomy community has an additional
obligation since it benefits from facilities on Indigenous territories across
Canada and the world. Furthermore, Indigenous people are still underrepresented
at all levels in Canadian astronomy. The purpose of this Community Paper is to
develop recommendations for the Canadian astronomy community to support
Indigenous inclusion in the science community, support Indigenous learning by
developing Indigenous-based learning materials and facilitate access to
professionals and science activities, and to recognize and acknowledge the
great contributions of Indigenous communities to our science activities. As
part of this work we propose the ten following recommendations for CASCA as an
organization and throughout this Community Paper we will include additional
recommendations for individuals: astronomers, students and academics.
