Presents the first comprehensive study of Indigenous perspectives on genetic resources, traditional knowledge, and access and benefit sharing in Canada. This book is also available as Open Access.
Indigenous Peoples, Consent and Benefit Sharing is the first in-depth account of the Hoodia bioprospecting case and use of San traditional knowledge, placing it in the global context of indigenous peoples’ rights, consent and benefit-sharing. It is unique as the first interdisciplinary analysis of consent and benefit sharing in which philosophers apply their minds to questions of justice in the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), lawyers interrogate the use of intellectual property rights to protect traditional knowledge, environmental scientists analyse implications for national policies, anthropologists grapple with the commodification of knowledge and, uniquely, case experts from Asia, Australia and North America bring their collective expertise and experiences to bear on the San-Hoodia case.
Dementia is a leading cause of disability and dependency globally. It is a syndrome, usually of a chronic or progressive nature, that leads to deterioration in cognitive function (i.e. ability to process thought) beyond what would be expected from normal ageing. Dementia can be overwhelming not only for the person who has it, but also for carers, families and society as a whole. Globally, a lack of awareness and understanding of dementia continues to lead to widespread stigmatization and discrimination, which may prevent people from accessing diagnosis and care. The World Health Organization (WHO) has long recognized the importance of addressing dementia and the need for increased investments in health and social care systems. The First Ministerial Conference on Global Action Against Dementia was held in March 2015, convening health ministers and delegations from 89 countries around the world to discuss comprehensive actions to address dementia. Two years later, WHO Member States unanimously approved the Global action plan on the public health response to dementia 2017–2025. Further, WHO’s Global Dementia Observatory (GDO) was established to monitor global progress on key targets and indicators within these action areas.
In an effort to challenge the ways in which colonial power relations and Eurocentric knowledges are reproduced in participatory research, this book explores whether and how it is possible to use arts-based methods for creating more horizontal and democratic research practices. In discussing both the transformative potential and limitations of arts-based methods, the book asks: What can arts-based methods contribute to decolonising participatory research and its processes and practices? The book takes part in ongoing debates related to the need to decolonise research, and investigates practical contributions of arts-based methods in the practice-led research domain. Further, it discusses the role of artistic research in depth, locating it in a decolonising context. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, design, fine arts, service design, social sciences and development studies.
It is 5:00 a.m. Monday morning in the conference room of the Franklin Technologies St. John, United States Virgin Islands headquarters. General James Phillips just arrived to brief Michael Tombs on the top secret conference in the Middle East with Michael Tombs and the Saudi group in the Saudi Arabian city of Majid on Thursday. Tombs says, “Good morning, General Phillips, what time are we expected to arrive in Majid?” General Phillips says, “The Saudi group requests your arrival whenever you wish to arrive, however, you could always fly by way of Namibia into Majid the night before.” Tombs says, “Great, my security team will only be in His Majesty’s convention center for only an eight-hour initial meeting. I want you and my entire security team to schedule a conference flight immediately to China, Hong Kong, and on to India and Mongolia for the Franklin Technologies scientific cultural convention. As you know, the host countries have sent me an invitation for an expert updated briefing on the steady progress of the Cris-Tut Vital Study placebo program according to their recently published scientific journal. Dr. Cameron informs me that the Chinese high command and their pro-scientific community are considering expanding a Cris-Tut Vital Study placebo treatment center into North Korea, and India’s high command and their pro-scientific community are considering expanding a Cris-Tut Vital Study placebo treatment center into the mountain region of western Pakistan. Each host country will meet you all at their VIP reception dinners.”
