Indigenous peoples develop and utilise climate science resources to address climate change impacts, and climate scientists often collaborate on such projects. Little is known about whether climate science organisations (CSOs) adequately train their staff to work ethically with Indigenous peoples, promoting benefits for Tribes while reducing harms. To research this training, we conducted interviews with CSO employees (n=9) and Native American Tribal citizens (n=7). Thematic content analysis revealed that many challenges, benefits and common goals exist for both groups. Tribes were more likely to discuss challenges, focusing on trust and capacity building. CSOs were more likely to discuss benefits, focusing on information exchange. Both CSOs and Tribes provide training activities for CSO employees, but training programs are not mandated or consistent across employees and organisations, and they are typically not evaluated. Our research indicates a need for co-created and evaluated training programs which take into account the challenges faced in cross-cultural partnerships.

道德合作和培训需求：美洲原住民部落和气候科学组织之间的伙伴关系

土著人民开发和利用气候科学资源来应对气候变化的影响，气候科学家经常在此类项目上进行合作。关于气候科学组织 (CSO) 是否充分培训其员工以合乎道德地与土著人民合作，促进部落的利益，同时减少危害，我们知之甚少。为了研究这种培训，我们采访了 CSO 员工 (n=9) 和美洲原住民部落公民 (n=7)。主题内容分析表明，这两个群体都存在许多挑战、好处和共同目标。部落更有可能讨论挑战，重点是信任和能力建设。公民社会组织更有可能讨论利益，重点是信息交流。公民社会组织和部落都为公民社会组织员工提供培训活动，但培训计划在员工和组织之间不是强制性的或一致的，而且通常不会进行评估。我们的研究表明需要共同创建和评估培训计划，其中考虑到跨文化伙伴关系面临的挑战。关键词气候变化、原住民、社区参与、部落驱动的参与式研究、伦理、STEM 教育
