 ous Asia\, jointly appointed to the Institute for Critical Indigenous Studi

 a. She is a trained Sherpa anthropologist from Nepal. Her research\, writin
 g and pedagogy focuses on climate change and Indigeneity among Himalayan co
 mmunities. She is currently involved in two collaborative projects. The fir
 st project\, <em>Transnational Sherpas</em>\, investigates what it means to
  be a Sherpa today. The second includes critical reflections on how the <em
 >Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change</em> can open up space for Indig
 enous peoples and local communities.</p><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>
 This talk explores the case of Sherpa people as a transnational Indigenous 
 community. It focuses on the Sherpas from the place also known as Nepal and
  their migration to what is also known as the United States. It begins with
  Sherpa migration history to examine transnational living and Indigeneity a
 s every day realities of the people. To do so\, it draws upon literature fr
 om Critical Indigenous Studies\, Migration Studies\, Anthropology\, Geograp
 hy\, and History. The talk presents Indigeneity as an important concept to 
 center realities of many who have been forced to migrate as a result of the
  current hegemonic\, capitalist\, and colonial systems including the nation
 -state framings in Asian and global contexts.</p><p>The registration for th
