Resilience Shaped by Intergenerational Knowledge and Deepened by Relational Connections

(1:00 pm US Central Time Zone)

In this session, we engage with intergenerational knowledge and collective resilience by sharing in Water as our relation, teacher and connector of past, present and future. As we visit with each other, we will discuss how resilience is deepened by our relational connections across watersheds and generations.
