    ginjigaadeg iba An D ish in a a b e E z h A i t w T r C a i a a b r d i n a g l f o C r l th i os m e wh a o t te ake A care of us da u ptation Men Abstract Climate change has impacted and will continue to impact indigenous peoples, their lifeways and culture, and the natural world upon which they rely, in unpredictable and potentially devastating ways. Many climate adaptation planning tools fail to address the unique needs, values and cultures of indigenous communities. This Tribal Climate Adaptation Menu, which was developed by a diverse group of collaborators representing tribal, academic, intertribal and government entities in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan, provides a framework to integrate indigenous and traditional knowledge, culture, language and history into the climate adaptation planning process. Developed as part of the Climate Change Response Framework, the Tribal Climate Adaptation Menu is designed to work with the Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science (NIACS) Adaptation Workbook, and as a stand-alone resource. The Menu is an extensive collection of climate change adaptation actions for natural resource management, organized into tiers of general and more specific ideas. It also includes a companion Guiding Principles document, which describes detailed considerations for working with tribal communities. While this first version of the Menu was created based on Ojibwe and Menominee perspectives, languages, concepts and values, it was intentionally designed to be adaptable to other indigenous communities, allowing for the incorporation of their language, knowledge and culture.

    Press Release For Immediate Release For More Information Contact: December 17, 2018 Emily Schlemowitz, 262-546-0300 x102 [email protected] Native Fiber on Exhibit January 17–April 28, 2019 Wisconsin Museum of Quilt & Fiber Arts Features Extraordinary Contemporary Native American Fiber Arts Cedarburg, Wis. – Native Fiber at the Wisconsin Museum of Quilts & Fiber Arts (WMQFA) brings together a breathtaking array of work by contemporary Native American fiber artists from throughout the Great Lakes. Curated by Karen Ann Hoffman, a renowned Iroquois raised bead worker, the exhibition features an expansive definition of fiber art, from quillwork to cordage, bead work, weaving, birch biting, leatherwork, and quilting. Under these artists’ hands, Indigenous fiber art traditions are both maintained and advanced, communicating timeless stories and addressing modern themes. Illuminating the astonishing ways Native American artists explore and alter extraordinary materials— black ash, birch, fur, and corn husk, to name a few—the exhibition comprises the work of thirty-one artists and one artist guild, representing twenty tribal nations. Every artist’s work falls under the Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990 and is considered authentic Indigenous art. Many of the works of art in the exhibition were created specifically for Native Fiber. Repeating iconography and subjects run throughout, including symbols of healing, forgiveness, women’s experiences, subjugation, and transformation. Together, the works attest to the diverse life and vibrancy of Indigenous fiber arts today. Native Fiber will be on view at WMQFA from January 17 through April 28, 2019. WMQFA will host a gallery night for members and artists on Saturday, January 26, from 5:30 p.m.

    2019 Tribal Great Lakes Restoration Culturally Inspired Restoration Sabin Dam Removal - Grand Traverse Band Invasive Species Control - Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band Aerial Moose Survey - 1854 Treaty Authority Cover Photo: Wild Rice restored on Nottawa Creek near the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi Reservation Welcome Readers Dear Reader, The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) began in 2010 to accelerate efforts to protect and restore the Great Lakes. With the support of GLRI, tribes have substantially increased their capacity to participate in intergovernmental resource management activities for the Great Lakes alongside federal, state and other partners to address some of the most pressing challenges facing the Great Lakes. Indian country, comprised of reservation land bases and ceded territories where tribes retain rights, represents millions of acres within the Great Lakes Basin. Since 2010, the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), with support from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, has provided GLRI funding to more than 30 tribes and tribal organizations in the Midwest and Eastern Regions for Great Lakes protection and restoration projects. The BIA GLRI program has gradually increased, growing from $3 million in 2010 to over $11 million in 2019. In total, BIA has provided approximately $60 million in GLRI funding to tribes as of fall 2019 to implement over 500 tribally led restoration projects. These projects protected and restored 190,000 acres of habitat and approximately 550 miles of Great Lakes tributaries, and include over 40 distinct projects to protect and restore native species. The majority of tribal GLRI projects work to assess, monitor, protect and restore local waterways, habitats, and species such as lake sturgeon, moose, and wild rice essential for tribal life-ways and cultural continuity.

Wiley, Dr. Sara Adlerstein-Gonzalez, Dr. Kurt Kowalski (USGS-GLSC) Preface In 2011, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and Ducks Unlimited received a $1.5 million Sustain Our Great Lakes grant for the first phase of a wetland restoration project at the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, outside Saginaw, Michigan. The ambitious project seeks to hydrologically reconnect a 2,260-acre complex of bottomland farm fields and diked wetlands to the dynamic river systems surrounding the Refuge. The goals of this restoration are to provide fish, birds, and insects with access to a large, restored wetland complex both through hydrologic reconnection and wetland restoration; and to contribute to the delisting of at least three of the Beneficial Use Impairments in the Saginaw River/Bay Area of Concern, just downstream of the Refuge. Phase I of the restoration project involves the conversion of 940 acres of former farmland, now owned by the Refuge, to ecologically productive wetland, and its hydrologic reconnection to the Shiawassee and Flint Rivers. The grant for Phase I included enough funds to complete the design, engineering, and implementation of the project.
