The Carbon & Culture Symposium invited Tribal Knowledge keepers, cultural practitioners, land managers, research groups, academics, and those who share CTUIR’s vision for the future to join us for a 3-day gathering at the Ascension School. Carbon management strategies are being proposed for our Columbia Plateau region, however our First Foods and working lands are being left behind. This event offered lectures by scientists and systems thinkers, alongside Indigenous knowledge workshops hosted by Naknuwiłáma Tiičámna (Caretakers of the Land).
Naknuwiłáma Tiičámna hosted Indigenous Land Stewardship workshops as a central feature of our event. Below are the videos and information from those sessions. Thank you to Fungaia for their videography for our event!
Day 1: First Foods Restoration and Tish Croom Walking Trail Tour
On our first day of the Symposium, Naknuwiłáma Tiičámna provided a workshop about their First Foods restoration with the Ascension School, and offered a walking tour of the restoration work to our participants. This is the part one of our videos from that Day 1 Workshop.
