Mission
Bringing together Indigenous leaders, creatives and brilliant thinkers to explore healing for Indigenous Peoples and the planet.
Goals
The most powerful way to empower people is through communication. Training Indigenous youth to become effective communicators and media makers to bring their voices to the forefront. We can work together to make the world a more compassionate place.
Life ways
–
Bringing back the importance of who we are - the importance of Traditional values and teachings that define our relationship with Grandmother Earth. Sustainability is as much about how we build community as how we help create the world around us.
Community
–
Traditional community building is the epitome of what makes life important. It teaches young people how to value life, treat people fairly, live without pain and how to live life to the fullest.
ARCHITECTURE & SYSTEMS DESIGN
–
Architecture and design that provide beauty, meaning, teachings and appreciation - blending Native-based Indigenous architecture and intermediate technologies towards a just transition from a fossil-fueled economy.
