Tribes are seeking to reestablish food sovereignty to provide healthier, traditional foods, enhance tribal culture and address the effects of natural disasters.
This webinar will focus on how forests are an important source of healthy foods for tribal and Indigenous communities. Learn how tribes, tribal communities, indigenous communities, and any interested community can work with forest managers to access and support food forests.
This webinar is part of the U.S. EPA Environmental Justice Webinar Series for Tribes and Indigenous Peoples. This webinar series is intended to build the capacity of tribal governments, Indigenous peoples and other environmental justice practitioners by discussing priority environmental justice issues of interest to tribes and Indigenous peoples.
Date : August 31, 2023
Time: 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM PT, 2:30 PM - 4:00 PM ET
