  1. Traditional Knowledge, Research and Intellectual Property WACHYA!! At the Waswanipi Cree Forest Model By Teodora Zamudio

  2. What is traditional knowledge? • it is the wisdom that enables a community to survive and develop • it is the result of a continuous process of experimentation, innovation and adaptation • it is a component of a community's own identity • Please, let me ask you for an example…

  3. First… Did everybody in this board sign the CONFIDENTIALITY CLAUSE for inside officer/member? If “YES” go on

  4. Just a minute, I want to make an agreement with you In my childhood and youth, all what my father and uncles have taught me and my cousins was about partridges, ducks and wild boars. So, my guide questions may need some adaptations… would you please re-interpret them if it is necessary?? one of my cousins and his father

Ready to “play” your Cree Knowledge in the Western World style? • Is there a particular feature in the tools? • Think in an Industrial Design • Is there a word in your language to define an exclusive tool? • Think in a Trade Mark • Is there a place non where else you may trap? • Think in the Human Right to an identity component • … Etc. Etc. Etc.
