S4 E5: International Relations—How Colonial Laws Often (But Not Always) Fail Indigenous Communities and the Environment, feat. Deborah Curran
Manage episode 436959776 series 2830610
Deborah Curran's passion for the environment flows through her psyche and the work she does as a lawyer, an academic and a consultant.
"If you met me in my 15-year-old self and drew a line, it would be pretty straight to where I am today," says Curran, a professor with the Faculty of Law and the School of Environmental Studies at the University of Victoria.
Jessica, George and Deborah discuss:
- the inherent limitations of colonial law in addressing Indigenous and environmental issues
- how some Indigenous communities are putting an outward-looking face on their internal legal orders
- the pressure, expectations and workloads placed on Indigenous leaders
- the implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples
- the growing role of Indigenous awareness training in Canada's professions
- the work and purpose of UVic's Indigenous Law Research Unit and student-led Environmental Law Centre
- and much more.
