What are examples of projects that acknowledge this history of the land\, its peoples\, and include not just ecological restoration but cultural and spiritual restoration? \nIn this popular and expanded workshop\, we will have a dialogue about the history of Native peoples and white supremacy in the Northwest and how it intersects with ecological restoration. Instructors will give examples from experience of ways to engage with Native communities and start successful relationships. We will compare ITECK (Indigenous Traditional Ecological and Cultural Knowledge) approaches and Western approaches and ways to use “two-eyed seeing”. We will have hands-on activities that explore our own connection to nature and explore our own family histories to the land. We will be acknowledging our shared histories and envisioning paths forward that respect nature\, our cultures\, and have abundant salmon! Themes of healing will be explored through reciprocity\, respect\, and relationships. During Day 2 we will visit a restoration site to see examples of these topics at work in the field. \nInstructors:\nSerina Fast Horse (Lakota & Blackfeet) is a lifelong member and emerging leader of the Indigenous community of Portland. With a foundation of interdisciplinary studies in Community Development and Indigenous Nations Studies\, she holds a rounded worldview that prioritizes community-focused and relational approaches. As the owner of Kimimela Consulting\, Serina works to cultivate transformative relationships that address social and ecological needs through collaborative relationships between Indigenous communities and regional agencies. She also served as the program coordinator for the Institute for Tribal Government at Portland State University for over three years where she supported the delivery of Tribal relations programming. \nShe is a gifted communicator and organizer who has been called on to support multiple regional gatherings such as the Changing Currents Tribal Water Summit\, Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians Climate Camp\, and the first Indigenous Land Conservation Summit. Additionally\, she serves as a coordinator of the emerging group called the Land Care Collective. Serina is driven by her passion to embrace Indigenous cultural knowledge and empower Indigenous voices to help create a holistic path to healing our ecological and social communities for our future generations. She looks forward to working collaboratively with her fellow Co-Directors and is excited by the potential impact of the Northwest Environmental Justice Center to create just\, equitable\, and lasting systemic change for our regional communities. \nToby Query is a father\, husband\, and ecologist. As part of the City of Portland’s Revegetation Program since 1999\, he stewards natural areas for all Portlanders. He founded the discussion group Portland Ecologists Unite! which created spaces to learn\, discuss\, and connect over current ecological issues. Toby is a steward of the Land Care Collective which seeks to build a network of reciprocity between Indigenous leaders and land care agencies and non-profits. Toby believes that a deeper restoration of the land and its waters require us to work towards healing in human and ecological communities concurrently and follow the lead of those whose cultural teachings believe in the interconnectedness of all life. He is a Certified Senior Ecologist from the Ecological Society of America and a current student at Portland State University’s ITECK program. \n\n\n\n\nLearning Outcomes \nUpon completion of this workshop students should be able to: \n· Practice land stewardship that benefits land\, its waters and people. \n· Discuss our shared histories and elevate the importance of raising Indigenous voices. \n· Promote projects that can meld ITECK and western knowledge systems. \n· Begin partnering with Indigenous community members in a respectful manner and take steps to foster relationships. \nMajor Topics: \n· General history of Native people in the US and the local area \n· ITECK (Indigenous Traditional Ecological and Cultural Knowledge) \n· Land stewardship \n· Relationship building and collaboration
