Enclosed is a junior high school Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) and environmental science-based curriculum aligned to California Common Core Standards suitable for grades 6-8. The curriculum emerged from Save California Salmon’s Spring 202ics central to Traditional Ecological Knowledge in various types of ecosystems throughout northern California, including: Salmon in California’s Rivers, community and environmental history, food sovereignty, connections between health and the environment, climate justice and ongoing community and youth activism.
The Series centers the voices and experiences of Indigenous scholars, leaders, and activists from across Native California, and also features presentations by community leaders, cultural practitioners and scientists. The webinars were attended by hundreds of participants from across California and throughout the United States. It is our hope that the Education Series and this associated curriculum will provide an important resource within the landscape of online and in-person learning.

Enclosed is a high school curriculum aligned to CA Common Core Standards suitable for Grades 9-12 and early college that emerged from the 2020 Advocacy and Water Protection in Native California Speaker Series and Certificate Program. Developed in collaboration with Humboldt State University’s Department of Native American Studies, the Speaker Series focuses on topics important to understanding water policy, environmental (in)justice, Indigenous rights, science, and activism in California. Threats to salmon in California’s rivers, community and environmental history, food sovereignty, connections between health and the environment, and ongoing community and youth activism are addressed in this curriculum.
The Series centers the voices and experiences of Indigenous scholars, leaders, and activists from across Native California, and also features presentations by community leaders, professors, scientists, and youth. The webinars were attended by thousands of participants from across California and throughout the United States and over 300 people enrolled in the accompanying certificate program, demonstrating a need and desire for Indigenous-led, community-focused, and culturally-appropriate learning opportunities. It is our hope that the Speaker Series and this associated curriculum will provide an important resource within the landscape of online and in-person learning.
Enclosed is the outline of the training to receive a certificate in the Advocacy and Water Protection in Native California Curriculum. The training is a 2-unit course ($50 per unit) provided by the Cal Poly Humboldt Native American Studies Department.
