Wabanaki Commission on Land and Stewardship

Our project will support developing an understanding of carbon, biodiversity and other novel stewardship finance schemes, in order to help the Wabanaki Commission develop culturally relevant frameworks and data sovereignty tools.

The priority lists will support the Tribal Nations in identifying the forest lands that meet tribal needs and long term planning goals

This project will create a clear list of priorities for each Wabanaki Tribal Nation in what is now Maine related to ongoing land-return efforts. Its ultimate purpose is twofold: 1. To enable deep community participation in setting land return priorities, and 2. To communicate to our fund-raising partners.
