The University of Washington's American Indian Studies Department invites you to a two-day symposium to be held May 1-2, 2013 in the Walker
Ames Room, Kane Hall, on the UW's Seattle campus.
"The Living Breath of Wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ: Indigenous Ways of Knowing Cultural Food Practices and Ecological Knowledge," will bring together primarily
Northwest Coast and regional Native leaders, elders, and scholars to share their knowledge and expertise on topics such as tribal food
sovereignty initiatives, food justice and security, traditional foods and health, global climate change's impact on coastal indigenous food
systems, treaties and reserved water rights, and treaty fishing rights and habitat protection.
Indigenous peoples in the Northwest have maintained a sustainable way of life through a cultural, spiritual, and reciprocal relationship with
their environment. Presently we face serious disruptions to this relationship from policies, environmental threats, and global climate change.
Thus, our traditional ecological knowledge is of paramount importance as we strive to sustain our cultural food practices and preserve this
healthy relationship to the land, water, and all living things.
This symposium will be the inaugural event to honor UW's future longhouse-style community building, Wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ(a Lushootseed word meaning
Intellectual House), that will open its doors in 2014. This event symbolizes the spirit of Wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ and embodies the essence of the work we
envision doing in this cultural and intellectual space.
