Article Synopsis
- Traditional food systems are crucial for the well-being of rural Indigenous communities in remote areas, but the variety of wild foods is declining due to climate change.
- A study involved 400 households from 18 Indigenous settlements in the Republic of Sakha, assessing their reliance on wild food and predicting future changes in food availability by the 2050s under various climate scenarios.
- Results show that while current reliance on wild foods is generally low, there are significant regional differences; remote Arctic communities depend more on animal products, whereas southern settlements have reduced reliance due to better access to urban food sources.
Free prior informed consent is a principle for consulting, cooperating, and obtaining consent from Indigenous peoples through their representative institutions on matters affecting them. It is promoted by the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, which calls on nations to strengthen the civil, political, and economic rights of Indigenous peoples by securing their rights to land, minerals, and other natural resources. Extractive companies have been developing policies to address Indigenous peoples' concerns as part of legal compliance and voluntary actions under corporate social responsibility.

Indigenous socioecological systems (ISES) are particularly exposed and sensitive to exogenous changes because of the intimate bounds of IPs with nature.
