Native Resilience
Online/Digital
The Native Resilience project supports agricultural adaptation efforts in Native American communities of the Southwest and Northern Plains regions by building new connections between Native wisdom and western scientific data. Through two-way information-sharing and relationship-building, our project team aims to make agricultural and environmental data more accessible and useful to Tribes in Northern Plains and Southwest Hub regions, and to build awareness nationally about adaptation options and resilience on Native lands.
