Indigenous Heritage Sites

Indigenous Heritage Sites are locations of cultural, historical, and spiritual significance to Indigenous peoples. These sites may include lands, landmarks, artifacts, or structures that hold deep meaning, often reflecting ancestral traditions, rituals, or history. Protecting these sites honors Indigenous communities' link to their heritage, preserves their stories, and maintains cultural identity. Recognizing and respecting Indigenous Heritage Sites promotes understanding, reconciliation, and the preservation of diverse cultural legacies for future generations.
