Finding space for Indigenous community planning
Building effective systems where people live and work takes planning. And the Colonial-based planning methods that grew from a viewpoint of dispossessing Native people might not be the best starting point for sustainable and evolving Native places.

Native America Calling will take a look at Indigenous community planning ideas and discuss the importance of including Indigenous voices and knowledge when it comes to making places that welcome Native people.
