Abstract

Maternal nutrition is at the core of any principle-centered projection of Sustainable Development Goals. Without the developmental health of newborns – there is no quality future. Specifically, there are situations all around the globe where Indigenous and Artisanal coastal people suffer from maternal malnutrition inadvertently limiting future potentials in many locations that will be most challenged by climate change. Results from research with Artisanal Fisherfolk in the Philippines and analysis of harvest by the Canadian Inuit people are discussed in terms of the ethics of setting national as well as global education and research priorities.

Highlights

  • The premise of this paper is that the Anthropocene Era represents a critical social responsibility challenge for the concept of tertiary education and research

  • All Canadian Inuit settlements are coastal and food security is dominated by the Indigenous harvest

  • The two examples in the current work provide some indication of the range of responses required in tertiary education research, if global hunger, maternal malnutrition is to be given due attention
