During a three-day inter-tribal exchange, a dozen tribal trainees and crew leaders employed by Lomakatsi visited Petroglyph Point in the Lava Beds National Monument, the Kosealekte Band area and Pit River Tribe XL Reservation, and the Northern Paiute Gidutikad Band Fort Bidwell Indian Reservation.
To conclude their 18-week program, the ecocultural education days were dedicated to subsistence lifestyle skills and indigenous food sovereignty, natural resource career pathways, cultural fire and wildfire management, and sharing of knowledge between Northern Paiute, Ajumawi-Atsuge (Pit River), Klamath, and Modoc tribal peoples to build inter-tribal workforce capacity for landscape-scale ecosystem restoration.
