This is an exploration of storytelling as a tool for knowledge
production and sharing to build new connections between people and
their histories, environments, and cultural geographies. The
collection pays particular attention to the significance of
storytelling in Indigenous knowledge frameworks and extends into
other ways of knowing in works where scholars have embraced
narrative and story as a part of their research approach. In the
first section, Storytelling to Understand, authors draw on both
theoretical and empirical work to examine storytelling as a way of
knowing. In the second section authors demonstrate the power of
stories to share knowledge and convey significant lessons, as well
as to engage different audiences in knowledge exchange. The third
section contains three poems and a short story that engage with
storytelling as a means to produce or create knowledge,
particularly through explorations of relationship to place. The
result is an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural dialogue that
yields important insights in terms of qualitative research methods,
language and literacy, policy-making, humanenvironment
relationships, and healing. This book is intended for scholars,
artists, activists, policymakers, and practitioners who are
interested in storytelling as a method for teaching, cross-cultural
understanding, community engagement, and knowledge exchange.
