For the Yup’ik people in Southwest Alaska and the Yurok in Northern California, salmon fishing is a way of life. 2020 Catalyst Award winners Amy Cordalis (Yurok) and Alannah Hurley (Yup’ik) see securing the sovereignty of their communities as inexorably linked to caring for the watersheds the salmon call home. Join this webinar to learn how Amy and Alannah have built successful alliances to protect their tribal livelihoods from industrial development, restored degraded ecosystems, and provided a blueprint for repairing our relationship to the land and each other. Moderated by Kim Milligan.

The Southern tip of South America is home to some of the most unique and biodiverse habitats on the planet, yet only a small percentage of its waters are protected. Building upon decades of terrestrial conservation work, Rewilding Chile and Rewilding Argentina are helping expand Patagonia’s marine protected areas. Join Rachel’s Network Member and President and Co-Founder of Tompkins Conservation Kris Tompkins, Rewilding Chile’s Marine Conservation Consultant Dr. Ana Torriente, and Rewilding Argentina Marine Conservation Director Martu Suasso to learn about their work to steward this special place. Moderated by Martha Davis.

When human beings were too much to bear, the earth consistently held firm under my feel and the solid, sticky trunk of the majestic white pine offered me something stable to grasp.
