Indigenous-led Natural Climate Solutions in Action: The Confederated Tribes of Colville

On May 13, 2021, we co-hosted the third webinar in our Natural Climate Solutions series with Anishnawbe Business Professional Association. This webinar featured the resource management approach of the Confederated Tribes of Colville Reservation in the United States, and explored what could be possible in Canada if current barriers are removed and community aspirations of stewardship and prosperity are realized.

Cody Desautel, (Natural Resources Director) shared experiences from Indigenous-led natural climate solutions within the Confederated Tribes of Colville and how their collective efforts contribute to creating healthy and resilient forests and local economic development.

A panel discussion and Q&A followed, moderated by Jason Rasevych (Anishnawbe Business Professional Association), with Steven Nitah (Indigenous Leadership Initiative and CRP Leadership Circle),Cornelia Rindt (NatureBank) and Hank Cauley (Nature for Justice).

This is the third and final webinar in the Natural Climate Solutions Series.
