Message from IITC Board President
On behalf of the IITC Board of Directors, I want to express my sincere appreciation to everyone, including our supporters, friends and allies. Your solidarity and generosity helped us to make IITC’s work successful in 2023. As we move into our 50th Anniversary year in 2024, and prepare for our 50th Anniversary Treaty Conference to be held in our birthplace at Standing Rock, South Dakota, we can look back at our history of work and accomplishments and look ahead to building our movement for the rights of Indigenous Peoples into the future.
We have experienced some sad losses, including our Board Vice President Hinewirangi Kohu who made her journey to her ancestors on February 15th, 2023. We also continue to face urgent and growing threats including the climate crisis and continuing violations of our rights in many places. Nevertheless, we remain committed and even more determined to continue our work in support of Indigenous Peoples’ struggles to defend their lands, Treaties, environmental health, food systems, climate justice and ways of life.
Moving forward, we welcome Radley Davis, Pit River Nation, California, who was selected by our Board of Directors in February 2023 to serve as our Vice President and the new members of our team, including dynamic youth advocates, who are making a strong and positive impact in the world arena. I want to personally thank and congratulate our staff, Board members and affiliates for their continued hard work and dedication on behalf of our Peoples, Mother Earth and the coming generations.
It continues to be an honor for IITC to serve our Peoples.
Ay Hy,
Ron Lameman,
IITC Board President, Beaver Lake Cree Nation, Treaty No. 6 Territory
