Lydia Jennings, a member of the Huichol (Wixaritari) and Pascua Yaqui (Yoeme) Nations, holds a doctorate in soil microbiology. Her work champions environmental science and the essential role of Indigenous communities, striving for more inclusive academic and environmental landscapes.

When her graduation was canceled due to the pandemic, Lydia celebrated by running 50 miles to honor Indigenous scientists and knowledge keepers—a tribute to the past, present, and future. This inspiring story is captured in a film by Devin Whetstone and Jordan Marie Daniel.

Current food production methods are significantly degrading the planet, a problem exacerbated by a rapidly growing global population expected to reach 10 billion by 2050. This trend will drastically worsen ecosystem degradation and atmospheric warming.

To alter this trajectory, we must explore alternative food production methods. This session will examine how technology and design, particularly alternative proteins, can help address these critical issues.

Join us to hear from Laura Wellesley, a Research Fellow at Chatham House specializing in alternative proteins, and Daniel Jones, Senior Campaign Manager at Feedback, who will discuss technology's role in developing the food system.

Current food production methods are severely degrading the planet, a crisis intensified by a global population expected to reach 10 billion by 2050. This unsustainable trajectory demands urgent alternative solutions, particularly in how technology and design can reshape our food system.

Alternative proteins offer a promising path forward. Join us to hear from Laura Wellesley (Chatham House), an expert in alternative proteins, and Daniel Jones (Feedback), who will discuss technology's role in developing a sustainable food system.

Kandi Mossett, IEN's Native Energy and Climate Justice Organizer, introduced the event, acknowledging the Indigenous Youth Movement for their vital contributions.

Dr. Daniel Wildcat presented a "Rights of Mother Earth" banner created by children from Haskell Indian Nations University's Day Care Center, emphasizing their significance as "OUR CHILDREN and Our FUTURE!"

Chief Ruben George and Ben West from the First Nations Women's Initiative (fwii.net) also contributed through a PowerPoint presentation and panel discussion.

Indigenous solutions stem from a spiritual power inherent in our being and deeply connected to ancestral lands and waters. This place-based power shapes our identity, informing a spiritual ecology where communities are bound by home's knowledge. We must renew ancient traditions, adapting them to contemporary challenges while honoring our ecological community and living in harmony with all life.

Moving forward requires validating indigenous ecological knowledge and recognizing our responsibilities to "relatives," not resources. We must commit to building systems that enhance life for all nature. This is a call to action: work together, grounded in spiritual heritage and accountable to ancestors, to create a better future.
