Course Overview

Inter-Tribal IAS is an educational collaboration between Earth Partnership (UW-Madison) Bad River, Red Cliff, and Lac du Flambeau Bands of Ojibwe and Ho-Chunk Nation, with the support of Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe College and College of Menominee Nation. Participants will gain culturally accurate and authentic resources about tribal sovereignty, history, culture and contemporary issues relevant to these Native Nations. Participants will also gain a better understanding of diversity of perspectives related to environmental issues, climate change and preserving biodiversity as they impact Native communities in Wisconsin. Learn from Elders, tribal scientists, leaders and educators virtually and engage in outdoor field experiences as a way to deepen your sense of where you live and integrate culture of place into your teaching.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Outline the fundamental importance of legitimizing diverse cultural perspectives, knowledge and relationships with the environment.
Demonstrate knowledge of WI Native Nations, including history, sovereignty, government structure, treaties and culture.
Describe an approach to restoration education and stewardship that considers diverse perspectives and assets related educational equity and inclusion.
