Deborah Curran's passion for the environment flows through her psyche and the work she does as a lawyer, an academic and a consultant.

"If you met me in my 15-year-old self and drew a line, it would be pretty straight to where I am today," says Curran, a professor with the Faculty of Law and the School of Environmental Studies at the University of Victoria.

Jessica, George and Deborah discuss:

  • the inherent limitations of colonial law in addressing Indigenous and environmental issues
  • how some Indigenous communities are putting an outward-looking face on their internal legal orders
  • the pressure, expectations and workloads placed on Indigenous leaders
  • the implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples
  • the growing role of Indigenous awareness training in Canada's professions
  • the work and purpose of UVic's Indigenous Law Research Unit and student-led Environmental Law Centre
  • and much more.
