Two-Eyed Seeing is a basis in viewing the world through both Western and Indigenous knowledges and worldviews. Two-Eyed Seeing was introduced by Mi’kmaq Elders,Albert and Murdena Marshall from Eskasoni First Nation,alongside Cape Breton University (CBU) professor,Cheryl Bartlett. Albert Marshall describes Two-Eyed Seeing as an approach to viewing the world "from one eye with the strengths of Indigenous ways of knowing,and to see from the other eye with the strengths of Western ways of knowing,and to use both of these eyes together". Two-Eyed Seeing was originally brought forward as a tactic to encourage Mi'kmaq university students to pursue an education in science. Since its implementation,the use of Two-Eyed Seeing has been integrated into various institutions' strategic plans,government policies,and research,some of which include the Canadian Institute of Health Research.
