Walking the Path of Right Relations Registration and Survey

Walking the Path of Right Relations will support non-Indigenous organizations to build the competency, commitment and cultural understandings to build engagement across the Climate Resiliency community and Indigenous Peoples in the Monterey Bay Area.


Specifically, Walking the Path of Right Relations supports a cohort to:


  • Deepen their understanding of the history and current dynamics that impact Indigenous Peoples and ways in which participants and their organizations can harm or advance Indigenous priorities for self-determination and Earth care,
  • Strengthen relationships across non-Indigenous and Indigenous leaders and organizations,
  • Design and adopt new practices for engaging and supporting Indigenous Peoples,
  • Form a bridge for Indigenous and non-Indigenous groups to explore and initiate partnerships around climate resilience.


This short survey includes:


1. Registration for Walking the Path of Right Relations,


2. A survey to understand our starting point.
