Restoring Land, Reviving Heritage: Indigenous Conservation - Phase 2
This project will restore healthy ecosystems and Indigenous cultural practices. Through expanded programming for preK-12th grade, urban Native students and families will reestablish enduring connections to land and culture.
$688,000 the second year is from the trust fund to the commissioner of natural resources for an agreement with Belwin Conservancy, in partnership with Anishinabe Academy and other urban Indigenous-based schools and youth programs, to continue to conduct native-led environmental education programming that incorporates ecology and Indigenous land traditions. This appropriation is also to restore and enhance habitat on permanently protected Belwin Conservancy lands using modern scientific standards and traditional ecological knowledge.
