At jmcomicÂþ»­, Northridge (jmcomicÂþ»­N) we developed a project seeking to uncover the untapped wealth of Local Ecological Knowledge within jmcomicÂþ»­N and the San Fernando Valley (Valley). Local Ecological Knowledge is a set of knowledge, beliefs, and practices regarding ecological relationships gained through personal observation and interaction with local ecosystems. The goal of our Cultivating Local Knowledge (CLK) initiative is to bring together diverse stakeholders across campus, the Valley, and jmcomicÂþ»­s invested in resilience in our communities and who will co-develop opportunities to support existing and new projects. The objective of this initiative is to bring together people, to actively share what we are currently doing, and to contribute to or support local ecological knowledge initiatives. We invite you to join the conversation, network, brainstorm, and help us build this initiative.
