Indigenous Communities

Sacred Water Circle:

The Sacred Water Circle and the Water Walkers, led by Indigenous Elders and Knowledge holders, and made up of Indigenous and non- indigenous community members, have devoted their efforts to the protection of water through education, awareness, and multi-sectoral coalition building. They have done so with the broader support of First Nations in the region, post-secondary institutions and NGOs. (www.sacredwater.ca)
