About Our Native America Projects
The Grand Canyon Trust has been working with the Navajo, Hopi, and other tribes on three key issues:
-
Intertribal Gatherings: More than one-third of the Colorado Plateau’s 120,000 square miles consists of Native American lands. To create a comprehensive vision for regional conservation and sustainability, we must consider tribal lands and perspectives in the dialog. To that end we have started a process of regular meetings between Colorado Plateau tribes called “Conversations on the Colorado Plateau.” Learn more…
- Renewable Energy: We are working with Plateau tribes to help them develop utility-scale wind and solar projects that achieve several objectives. These objectives include creating clean energy sources for Native people, decreasing air pollution, and decreasing dependence on resource extraction as an economic engine. Learn more...
- Community-based, Green-Economy Development: The Trust is working with tribes to identify sustainable economic development projects that respect their rich cultural traditions. Learn more...
Grand Canyon Trust has participated in projects at Shonto, Sipaulovi, Leupp, Monument Valley, the Little Colorado River Overlook, and other locations throughout Native America.
Your donations and membership dues make our work with the Navajo and Hopi Tribes possible.
