Wisdom of the Elders is a non-profit committed to preserving and sharing traditional knowledge. Screenings included two films about the Alaska Native response to climate issues and the importance of Native communities’ unique earth-based cultures. The films were followed by a dialogue with local leaders, with time for audience questions and feedback, giving the community a voice in important local climate issues we will be facing in the years ahead.
