How to bring life back to educational work about indigenous science

My collaborator and I are developing educational materials about indigenous water management, but we've become so serious about accuracy and cultural sensitivity that we've lost all the humor and storytelling that makes this knowledge alive, and our materials feel dead on the page.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Their reverent seriousness is killing the very vitality that makes indigenous knowledge powerful and transmissible.
