Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Andy Fyon is a retired Director of the Ontario Geological Survey (OGS), an Ontario government geoscience organization. In 1999, Andy started to visit fly-in First Nations communities in northern Ontario to understand the underlying causes of conflict with the OGS geoscience program. Over the following fifteen years, Andy learned about the importance of jointly creating an engagement process with each First Nations band he worked with. In 2007, Andy and his colleague Lori Churchill received an Ontario Government Amethyst Award recognizing their efforts to improve relations with remote First Nations people. The lessons learned and insights gained from the First Nations people guided Andy as he modernized the OGS First Nations engagement practices. They also changed Andy's life.
