Published on

We are very pleased to announce the release of our documentary film, "Cumikluten (Pay Attention),” as part of the POLARIS project. This 35-minute film, produced by Ryan Peterson, documents the urgent and devastating challenges faced by Alaskan communities, including environmental stress, cultural loss, subsistence harvesting, and socioeconomic vulnerability. The film also highlights the knowledge co-production efforts that our interdisciplinary team has been collaborating on with local communities since 2020 to identify ways to enhance community resilience. We invite you to watch "Cumikluten (Pay Attention)" to better understand this work and the critical issues facing these communities.
