Dear colleagues, I'm delighted to share the early-access versions of a collection of articles in *Global Environmental Politics* on "Transformative water relations: Indigenous interventions in global political economies": https://www.mitpressjournals.org/toc/glep/0/0
As we describe in the introduction: "With attention to historical relationships of colonialism and the ongoing contestation of governance systems within and across nations, the Special Issue articles collected here address both the limits to and the opportunities for change. Through critical political economy lenses, particularly as understood in Indigenous politics and thought, these articles offer theoretically and empirically novel contributions to GEP."

Neville and Glen Coulthard* - (En)gendering Shoreline Law: Nishnaabeg Relational Politics Along the Trent Severn Waterway, *Madeline Whetung* - Engaging Colonial Entanglements: “Treatment as a State” Policy for Indigenous Water Co-Governance, *Sibyl Diver, Daniel Ahrens, Talia Arbit, and Karen Bakker* - “Our Winters’ Rights”: Challenging Colonial Water Laws, *Andrew Curley* - Finding Common Ground: Negotiating Downstream Rights to Harvest with Upstream Responsibilities to Protect—Dairies, Berries, and Shellfish in the Salish Sea, *Emma S.
