Welcome to our web site! You will find thousands of Internet and published resources described and cataloged at this site. We also have a document archive and a case studies section where we address specific issues. Please e-mail us about new web sites and books.

This non-profit project has three goals:

  1. to educate the public on environmental problems in Native American communities;
  2. to explore the values and historical experiences that Native Americans bring to bear on environmental issues;
  3. to promote conservation measures that respect Native American land and resource rights.
