Event Goal
This conversation will bring together Indigenous Voices and land trust practitioners to create a guiding document that recognizes an Indigenous Way of Protecting Land to be shared with land trusts. And that conservation lands need to think beyond the colonial construct of land ownership to the much broader and deeper responsibility of ongoing learning, understanding, sharing and commitment to healing this relationship with Indigenous People.
