Lomakatsi Thanks Tribal Partnerships Program Intern

Published October 20, 2022

We recently celebrated Amanda Rose, Southern Oregon University Native American Studies student, for completing the Tribal Partnerships Program 120-hour internship with Lomakatsi, working directly with Tribal Partnerships Director Belinda Brown on outreach and collaboration for various projects with Tribal partners throughout the summer and early fall.

This internship focuses on elevating Tribal partnerships in collaborative forest and watershed restoration and increasing Tribal inclusion in large landscape-scale ecosystem restoration initiatives that benefit Tribal communities through co-investment aimed at the long-term co-management of ancestral lands. We thank Amanda Rose for her dedicated work and contributions to centering Indigenous Traditional Ecological Knowledge, facilitating open and honest dialogue, integrating collaborative models, and sharing her expertise in theoretical and applied studies at the intersection of earth systems sciences and Indigenous methodologies.

We are pleased to continue working with Amanda following her internship on preparations for the 2023 Tribal Summit and in collaboration with the Indigenous Gardens Network.

Congratulations, Amanda!

Mission

Restore ecosystems and the sustainability of communities, cultures, and economies.

We acknowledge that Lomakatsi operates programs across the ancestral lands of aboriginal peoples who lived and live in the watersheds of the Willamette River, Rogue River, Klamath River, Umpqua River, and Pit River, in what is now called Oregon and California. From sagebrush hillsides and mixed conifer forests, to oak woodlands and riverine systems, we offer our respect, recognition, and gratitude to the original past, present, and future inhabitants of these landscapes, to whom we dedicate this work.
