Land and lifeways after the war: Modern Apache relationship to the environment

Abstract

This lesson examines the ways in which contemporary Apache people have preserved and
modified their connection to the land through environmental stewardship, spiritual beliefs, and cultural traditions despite these difficulties.
In addition to participating in contemporary initiatives like conservation, land reclamation, and environmental science education, students will study how the Apache people still utilize the area for customary uses including harvesting plants, holding ceremonies, arts and telling stories
