ANSWER: maps [accept mental maps; accept indigenous mapping or counter-mapping] (Indigenous mapping projects in Kalimantan led Nancy Peluso to pioneer the concept of counter-mapping.)
[10m] This island’s Lorentz National Park is one of indigenous mapping’s biggest successes, using Asmat and Dani knowledge to protect a highly diverse transect from the tropical Arafura Sea to the glaciers of Puncak (“POON-chahk”) Jaya.
ANSWER: New Guinea [or Papua; or Niugini; accept Irian]
