Project Summary

In the Midwest, many tribal nations and inter-tribal entities are leaders in climate adaptation. In northern Minnesota, the 1854 Treaty Authority and Bois ForteFond du Lac and Grand Portage bands released their first adaptation plan in 2016. We are working with the Treaty Authority and affiliated bands to update that plan, evaluating progress and incorporating new knowledge.
