    Traditional Knowledge Holder Explains Value of Traditional Knowledge | FACS of Life Vodcast | S2:E3

    In this episode of the FACS of Life, Traditional Knowledge Holder, Molly Cerridwen - University of Alaska Fairbanks Extension, and Amanda Harner - UGA Extension Agent, discuss the unique role Traditional Knowledge Holders have within Extension services within the Cooperative Extension Services within Alaska & their relevance throughout the USA. This episode helps teach us that if we want to effectively work with people, be that through business, public health, or even as volunteers, we need to consider several things:

    • Ask why locals value the traditions they practice and how we can honor those things.
    • Where are are opportunities for growth within the knowledge that exists among the people you seek to work with?
    • Have a posture of learning. Humans have been learning from one another for centuries.
    • Focus on the things we have in common, agree on, and how we are connected.
    • Be present. Being present matters to win trust. Through presence we demonstrate consistency, authenticity, our desire to learn, and that our commonality matters more than our differences.
