Constitution making and remaking... these topics are critical to Native nation (re)building and “strengthening Indigenous governance,” the mission of the Native Nation Institute. This 2-day event features Tribal leaders, scholars, and practitioners from across the U.S. – all in effort to provide participants with a diversity of perspectives and experiences on the best practices for strengthening Tribal constitutions.
The seminar is designed to equip leaders and other decision makers with the knowledge and tools necessary for assessing their systems of governance. Participants will then explore analytical frameworks for evaluating community needs, strategies for strengthening governmental foundations, and follow up steps to ensure the long-term sustainability of tribal constitutional refinement efforts. All participants have ample opportunity to ask questions, collaborate with colleagues from other Native nations, and enjoy catered meals from the desert southwest.
$500 Registration (ends June 30th) includes:
- 2 full breakfasts & lunches at the resort
- 2 full days of training & discussion
- A copy of "Structuring Sovereignty: Constitutions of Native Nations" book
We accept payment online via credit card or mail via check. For more info contact Bridget Radcliffe.
