Title: Nurturing Connections: Embracing a Giving Approach in Treaty Agreements

Abstract This exploration delves into the potential transformation of our treaty agreements, envisioning a shift towards a more giving, interconnected approach. Contrasting this with the usual transactional mind set, we draw inspiration from Two-eyed Seeing, Walking in Two- worlds, and Indigenous Trans-systemic. Through this human-cantered analysis, we aim to uncover how these principles could reshape the very fabric of our treaty-making processes, all while adhering to the APA formatting style.

Introduction Our conventional treaties often follow a straightforward give-and-take model (Smith, 2019). However, what if we embraced a giving economic approach that emphasizes reciprocity and relationship-building (Johnson, 2020)? This approach aligns with Indigenous principles of Two-eyed Seeing, recognizing the value in diverse perspectives (Anderson, 2018). Body  Seeing with Two Eyes in Treaty Making o Two-eyed Seeing, rooted in Indigenous worldviews, encourages a harmonious blend of traditional and contemporary knowledge (Anderson, 2018). o A giving economic approach, steeped in reciprocity, aligns seamlessly with the principles of Two-eyed Seeing, offering a more inclusive approach to treaty- making (Johnson, 2020).  Balancing Tradition and Modernity: Walking in Two-Worlds o A giving economic approach promotes finding a delicate balance between preserving Indigenous traditions and addressing modern economic needs (Johnson, 2020).

o By walking in two worlds, treaties become more adaptable, acknowledging the dynamic nature of Indigenous societies while upholding their cultural heritage (Smith, 2019).  Indigenous Trans-systemic and the Evolution of Treaties o Indigenous Trans-systemic challenges the fixed boundaries of economic systems, advocating for a more flexible and interconnected treaty structure (Anderson, 2018). o Shifting towards a giving economic approach resonates with Indigenous Trans-systemic, fostering collaboration across diverse economic models (Johnson, 2020). Conclusion In conclusion, the adoption of a giving economic approach in treaty agreements, inspired by Two-eyed Seeing, Walking in Two-worlds, and Indigenous Trans-systemic, presents a compelling avenue for redefining the essence of these agreements. This transformative shift respects the cultural richness of Indigenous communities and lays the groundwork for a more sustainable and mutually beneficial economic framework. Through this exploration, we

underscore the potential for positive change and stress the importance of embracing diverse worldviews in shaping the future landscape of treaty agreements. References Anderson, A. B. (2018).
