This research emphasizes the importance of equitable governance and recognizing the leadership roles of Indigenous peoples and local communities in conservation efforts. The study suggests that more positive ecological outcomes are associated with governance structures that give Indigenous peoples and local communities equal partnership or primary control, aligning with the goals of the International Day of Indigenous Peoples to elevate their leadership roles and respect their rights and customary institutions in conservation initiatives.
This research provides archaeological evidence for free or enslaved Indigenous and African individuals during colonial times in Quebec, where written accounts of African people are few and limited.

Since 2017 HPCC Systems has taken part in Kennesaw State University’s annual Hackathon for Social Good held at the Joe Mack Wilson Student Center, Marietta Campus. The goal of this hackathon is to connect students with companies through workshops and mentoring to achieve a final product that can in some way help the community. This year was no different and in fact, was the most in-depth challenge HPCC Systems has offered so far. This year the Help Missing Kids Challenge was introduced.
The study forecasts AI-based innovation's impact on SDGs in 22 countries from 2022 to 2030 using System Dynamics Modeling. In most of the 22 countries studied, AI-based innovation positively affects SDGs 1, 3, and 5. For half of the countries studied, AI-based innovation positively influences SDGs 2, 4, 6–8, 11, 13, and 16–17. AI-based innovation does not positively influence SDGs 10, 12, 14–15 for most countries studied.
Settling the record: 3,000 years of continuity and growth in a Coast Salish settlement constellation
Journal of Anthropological Archaeology, Volume 73, March 2024
The research highlights how, for Indigenous people across the globe, being connected to traditional lands and histories continues to be of paramount importance. To document this connection on one river system in the Pacific Northwest Coast of North America, the researchers have compiled archaeological evidence from 14 settlements occupied between 3,000 years ago and the early 20th century.
This research provides an ethnographic review of hunter-gatherers' profound relationships with trees, today and into the deep past. In the modern west we sometimes ignore our profound human relationship with trees.

In recent years, increased expectations from investors, regulators, employees, and customers have put significant pressure on companies to increase their sustainability efforts.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are not just another sustainability framework, but the only universally agreed blueprint to turn meaningful ambition into transformational change. However, businesses report difficulties in integrating the SDGs into their core strategies and in understanding, reporting, and managing their impact on the Goals.
