Tired of looking to the outside for answers? It’s time to turn around and look within your own communities for strength.
Peacemaking is not just an alternative dispute resolution to Native communities — it is the original, traditional way our communities managed disputes for centuries before tribal courts were created. Due to natural limitations inherent in tribal courts, there is increasing interest in the continuation and revitalization of these traditional methods.
This webinar will explain how tribal traditions may offer solutions to some problems that have proven especially difficult in tribal courts, provide examples of successful cases from other tribes, and discuss how this movement is part of a larger, international effort of indigenous communities using their own wisdom to solve problems.
