On July 1, 2019, Pimachiowin Aki celebrates its first anniversary as a World Heritage Site. Described as “a landmark nomination” and “a watershed in representing the seamless links between culture, nature, and customary stewardship knowledge, beliefs and practices”, Pimachiowin Aki has received world-wide attention as a model for indigenous-led nominations and natural-cultural sites in the context of the World Heritage Convention.
Please join us as we build awareness and capacity around the nomination and successful inscription of Pimachiowin Aki, and continue to protect the site, foster local economic growth, and safeguard Anishinaabe cultural heritage and the boreal forest for the benefit of all humanity into the future. Be part of our legacy and continued success!
