Mission: CIER supports Indigenous people and communities to be leaders of positive environmental change, using the best of Western and Indigenous knowledge to create a world that is in balance and supports the well-being of all living things.

Now more than ever climate change is affecting us all and leaving those who live off the land more vulnerable, struggling to maintain their way of life. Nature's resources sustain Indigenous communities and through reciprocity and conservation they care for the land using their knowledge, culture and traditions. Indigenous people believe we don’t own the land, we owe the land.

Join CIER and the Indigenous communities by giving back, as we are all one, responsible for the beautiful land we share.
