摘要：Indigenous peoples develop and utilise climate science resources to address climate change
impacts, and climate scientists often collaborate on such projects. Little is known about
whether climate science organisations (CSOs) adequately train their staff to work ethically
with Indigenous peoples, promoting benefits for Tribes while reducing harms. To research this
training, we conducted interviews with CSO employees (n=9) and Native American Tribal
citizens (n=7). Thematic content analysis revealed that many challenges, benefits and common
goals exist for both groups. Tribes were more likely to discuss challenges, focusing on trust
and capacity building. CSOs were more likely to discuss benefits, focusing on information
exchange. Both CSOs and Tribes provide training activities for CSO employees, but training
programs are not mandated or consistent across employees and organisations, and they are
typically not evaluated. Our research indicates a need for co-created and evaluated training
programs which take into account the challenges faced in cross-cultural partnerships.
