Indigenous fire stewardship (IFS) plays a critical role in the maintenance of North American forest resilience. This synthesis reviews literature on IFS in the PNW as represented in scholarly peer reviewed publications.
We also conducted a systematic search of the internet to identify informational resources, networks, and organizations engaged with IFS in the PNW. This paper synthesizes information on ecological, social, and policy aspects of IFS that are relevant to fire managers and
restoration practitioners in the PNW. We identify current knowledge and knowledge gaps, as well as policy opportunities and barriers relevant to the application of IFS to fire management and ecological restoration. Supplemental information on spreadsheets: 1. Search_Citations.csv: This is a list of citations identified in the systematic review. It identifies the database and search terms associated with the article, information on citations, authorship, article type, and ranking used for annotation. 2. Columndescriptions.csv: Defines column headings for the Search_Citations spreadsheet. 3. SearchLog.csv: Provides details for each systematic search. 4. IFS_Websites.csv: List of websites related to Indigenous fire stewardship in the PNW.

The increasingly longer
and more severe wildfire smoke events in the Pacific
Northwest are likely to occur during outdoor athletic
events. We investigated wildfire smoke concerns,
air quality communication preferences, and protective
action behaviors among sporting event attendees
through a survey created by our interdisciplinary research
team from the UO. This report presents survey
results and implications for improving communication
and protocol for air quality and smoke during
future outdoor athletic events.

The Oregon Department of Forestry’s (ODF) Landscape
Resiliency Program (LRP) is a grant program to support cross-boundary restoration
of landscape resiliency and fuels reduction within
Oregon. In fall 2021, ODF requested the Ecosystem
Workforce Program (EWP) at the University of Oregon
(UO) to devise and carry out a plan for monitoring
investments and outcomes of the LRP. The LRP monitoring
plan focused on three stages: Project Selection,
Implementation, and Outcomes. The purpose of this
working paper is to report the results of the Implementation
and Outcomes monitoring phases. This report presents 1) an overview
of selected projects, 2) project participants' experiences
with project implementation successes, challenges,
and lessons learned, 3) on-the-ground accomplishments
of LRP projects, and 4) an assessment of
the economic aspects of LRP.

The Federal Forest Restoration (FFR) Program is a joint
effort among the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF),
federal forest managers, and public lands stakeholders to
increase the pace, scale, and quality of federal forest restoration
across Oregon. The program supports management
for forest resilience on federal lands as well as economic
opportunities for surrounding communities. This working
paper provides an update on FFR Program investments and
outcomes for the 2021-2023 biennium. Reports from the
previous biennium (2019-2021) can be found elsewhere.
Here we report: 1) FFR Program expenditures, 2) economic
activity from timber sales and the FFR grant investments,
3) on-the-ground accomplishments of the FFR Program,
and 4) stakeholders’ perspectives on the FFR Program’s
successes and challenges.
