Native American Land and Resource Management

Native American land and resource management involves the stewardship and sustainable use of natural resources by Indigenous communities. It recognizes their longstanding spiritual, cultural, and legal connections to the land. Native tribes often employ traditional knowledge, sustainable practices, and modern conservation methods to preserve ecosystems, manage forests, waters, and wildlife, and ensure resources are available for future generations. This governance respects treaties and sovereignty, balancing economic development with environmental stewardship, and promotes cultural preservation through responsible land management practices rooted in centuries of Indigenous tradition.
