Created in collaboration with the Green New Deal Network in addition to many frontline organizations, the THRIVE Agenda is a bold vision to Transform, Heal, and Renew by Investing in a Vibrant Economy. The webinar brings together powerful Indigenous voices to share with you a vision of what the THRIVE Agenda means for NDN Country. 
 

The THRIVE Agenda promises to bring back millions of good paying, sustainable jobs, to promote healthy lives, and to reinvest in our public institutions as part of their 8 pillars. As Indigenous people, we recognize these principles have different meanings in our traditional languages. 
 

A good job is one that allows us to feed our family without going against our Indigenous values, a healthy life means access to clean water, food sovereignty and traditional medicine. Reinvesting in public institutions, means access to our elders, our communities and our Indigenous languages.  The webinar will focus on what these pillars mean for our Tribal Communities. We need your help and feedback to Indigenize the THRIVE Agenda for NDN Country! 
 

Since 1990, the Indigenous Environmental Network has sought to promote Indigenous solutions to climate policy and Tribal Sovereignty. The THRIVE Act offers a road map to a just recovery and a regenerative future that prioritizes the strengthening of Indigenous and Tribal sovereignty, Nation-to-Nation relationships, and consultation standards by codifying Free, Prior, Informed Consent (FPIC). It recognizes the UN’s Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and Tribal concerns regarding jurisdictional authority.
 

What does all this mean? It means addressing the missing and murdered Indigenous women crisis, it means meaningful consultation that can be enforced, it means no more unilateral decisions made without Tribal consent. It means a way forward to create a regernaritive economy and feminist future, that centers and uplifts Black, Indigenous, and working class communities on the frontlines.
 

Thank you for taking the time to learn about this bold vision for meaningful change.
 

We are excited for you to join our THRIVE 4 NDN COUNTRY Webinar : [link removed] on March 31st!
