The Institute for Tribal Environmental Professionals' Tribal Wellbeing for Seven Generations (TW7G) Program is pleased to announce the fourth biennial NTICC conference taking place in Reno, Nevada, October 5-8, 2026! This year’s theme, “Honoring Our Knowledges, Healing Our Mother Earth” invites you to consider that, as the five-fingered beings/humans, we must continue our efforts to care for Mother Earth, and the only way forward is to share the responsibility and coordination.
This year's event will strengthen the resilience of communities, nature, and built environments to evolving hazards through coordination, collaboration, partnerships and honoring reciprocity with one another and the natural world.
As we have done in previous years, we welcome all who are interested in participating or attending to listen, learn, and share in the important work being done.
