This is not a value-neutral role. As Indigenous issues have been underrepresented in previous IPCC assessments, this review analyzes how Indigenous content is covered and framed in Assessment Report 5 Working Group II (WGII). The development of culturally relevant and appropriate adaptation policies requires a more robust, nuanced, and appropriate inclusion and framing of Indigenous issues in future assessment reports. The article outlines how this can be achieved.1 digital file (14 p.)application/pdfenCLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATIONINSTITUTIONSIPCCINSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORKBIASGLOBAL HEALTHSCIENTIFIC CULTUREGLOBALIncluding indigenous knowledge and experience in IPCC assessment reports : post-print versionJournal Article (peer-reviewed)
