Indigenous Peoples face disproportionate risks from climate change while being key to planetary health and climate resilience due to their traditional ecological knowledge. This manuscript provides Indigenous perspectives on climate justice, exploring the intersection of health, sovereignty, and ancestral practices, and discusses opportunities for decolonizing relationships to place, highlighting a case of rematriation and healing at Bdóte, the place of genesis for Dakota Peoples, also known as Minneapolis and Saint Paul, MN.
This paper provides guidance for assessment of trade-offs from a human valuation perspective, thus supporting policy makers when considering arguments for salt marsh management within the context of the 30x30 targets for protected areas.

This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health as well as Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by providing research on disabilities to help prepare for future public health disasters. It also promotes inclusive leadership and implementation that considers the needs of people with disabilities.

This study identifies TLR5 as a marker for brain border-associated macrophages (BAMs) in neonatal mice and demonstrates that TLR5 expression on these macrophages enhances their ability to defend against bacterial meningitis by activating immune responses and recruiting innate immune cells. The findings highlight the role of TLR5 in neonatal brain immunity and suggest potential therapeutic strategies for preventing bacterial meningitis in infants.
This paper proposes a framework based on Universal Design principles to improve accessibility and equity in science and engineering interviews for people with disabilities and underrepresented groups, emphasizing systemic cultural change.
