For example, over the past 2 years, First Nations from around the world, including the Maori, Hopi, and Tohono O’odham, have been participating in the international Meeting of Sacred Waters, through which various Nations advance new understandings of society’s relationship to water and land, and new approaches to sustainable governance.
