Aywaa Storyhouse Origins
Home / Aywaa Storyhouse Origins
We catalyze momentum in Alaskan communities by sharing stories that connect the assertion of self-governance with sustainable opportunities. We recognize that each community is unique and pathways toward cultural, economic, and social sustainability are not equivalent. We honor communities that are prospering, on their own terms, with the health and well-being of land, waters, environment and generational relations in mind.
Alaska’s Indigenous peoples are at a pivotal moment. The next generation of Indigenous leaders recognize that our cultural values ground us in who we are and allow us to make meaningful decisions on behalf of our communities.
When our actions stem from our values, we understand how to overcome challenges and create sustainable opportunities for future generations.
We invite you to listen to a new generation of Alaska’s Indigenous leaders offer a message of hope as humanity seeks to increase awareness of how to live in relationship with one another and with the planet.
