Indigenous Life Ways ILW began collective action, culture-based

organizing in 1987 as the Southwest Indigenous

Uranium Forum.

As an Indigenous oriented organization, we utilize traditional knowledge, ceremonies, and a deep understanding of our communities to provide education and facilitate opportunities as we work to create health, prosperity, and capacity for our community. In our 30 years we have worked

with over 150 Tribes and convened a gathering of

Indigenous Peoples from Alaska, North America,

Bolivia and Japan converged near Acoma Pueblo to

discuss uranium developments and share

knowledge, experiences, and strategies combating

nuclear power worldwide. We continue our work

protecting Sacred Sites and our precious water.

We had a quick chat with Indigenous Lifeways Executive Director Krystal Curley to reflect on her experience at Climate Week NYC, the incredible support shown for Indigenous Lifeways, and what lies ahead for the organization.

Climate Week NYC may be over, but the connections made, stories shared, and important work continue beyond New York City.
Take a listen as Krystal shares her reflections and what’s next for Indigenous Lifeways!

A look back at our Speaking With Our Heart 360° VR Film Experience during Climate Week NYC.
An evening of storytelling, connection, and bringing people together through an immersive experience that allowed our stories to be seen, heard, and felt in a different way.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and stepped into the experience.

Speaking With Our Heart. Our stories. Our voices. Our way.
