Indigenous peoples are among the populations in the U.S. who are increasingly calling for equity and justice in the energy transition to renewable energy. Major policy initiatives, proposed for legislation and adopted by the White House, are seeking to mobilize research to support Indigenous energy goals. The presentation covers research and best practices relating to ethics, justice, and partnership for the collaborations that are needed to ensure Indigenous peoples are among the leaders of the energy transition.
