Robin Wall Kimmerer, “Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants”

Join Wild Ones and the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh’s Sustainability Institute for Regional Transformations and the Inter-Tribal Student Council on Tuesday, March 19 as we present: “Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants” with celebrated ecologist, educator and author Robin Wall Kimmerer.

Robin Wall Kimmerer will be discussing “Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants.” This talk explores the stories and experiences that shaped the author of Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants. Listeners are invited to consider what we might learn if we understood plants as our teachers, from both a scientific and an indigenous perspective.
