Description

The oregon museum of science and industry (OMSI) will address two regional needs identified through community listening with indigenous and tribal partners – learning opportunities focused on climate and environment and increased indigenous and tribal visibility and affirmation. In partnership with the native american youth and family center (NAYA), the museum will launch a redesign of its life and earth halls into a unified space known as the natural sciences hall. Project activities will include working with advisors and a cohort of native-identifying teens to develop, pilot, and document a CO-development process for learning experiences, and creating up to three exhibit experiences that center traditional ecological knowledge as complementary to western science as a way of understanding and addressing climate change. OMSI evaluation staff will closely collaborate with NAYA's evaluation team to prioritize input from native youth and their families.
