Please find the details below. *Title:* Social impact assessment of Klamath dam removal (California, Oregon, US) for Tribal community well-being. *Abstract*: This collaborative research initiative engages the Karuk Tribe to co-develop an assessment tool evaluating the social, cultural and economic impacts of dam removal in the Klamath Basin from a Tribal perspective (California, Oregon, US). The assessment focuses on the social impacts of dam removal to Karuk Tribal community well-being including cultural resources, holistic health, self-governance, education, and livelihoods ( https://damremovalsocialimpact.com). By doing so, the assessment provides a baseline for understanding social impacts that are relevant to tribal community members, as well as community perceptions of Klamath dam removal processes that started in 2023. This work shares findings from the Klamath assessment process, and discusses the importance of including Indigenous peoples in social impact assessment more generally, in part, through leveraging well-being frameworks. * About the speaker * Dr. Sibyl Diver is an interdisciplinary environmental scientist, a lecturer in the Earth Systems Program, and co-director for the Environmental Justice Working Group at Stanford University. She does community-engaged research on Indigenous water governance focusing on Pacific Northwest salmon watersheds. This includes research on co-management (or collaborative management) arrangements between Indigenous communities and state agencies, and decolonizing methodologies. For the past 20 years, she has worked on issues of Indigenous peoples and salmon around the North Pacific – in the Russian Far East, Alaska, Canada, and has spent fifteen years partnering with the Karuk Tribe in Northern California. She is currently partnering with Karuk tribal managers and community leaders on a social impact assessment of Klamath dam removal. Dr. Diver received her PhD from the Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management at the University of California - Berkeley. *Date and Time:* July 3, 2024; 12:00 pm *Venues:* ATREE, Bengaluru Link to register if attending virtually: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_6CzqO3Q7QgqFkxOBTmtnIg ------------------------------ -- Madhavi Latha G The Academy for Conservation Science and Sustainability Studies Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE), Royal Enclave, Srirampura, Jakkur PO Bangalore 560064, India ----------------------------------------------------------------- Phone: +91-80-23635555 Extn: 121 Fax: +91-80-23530070 E-mail: [email protected] _________________________________________________________________
