UC San Diego Global Initiatives has partnered with San Diego Sister Cities to present the first Indigenous Sustainable Design Forum, happening November 21, 2024, at UC San Diego Park & Market. The Indigenous Sustainable Design Forum represents an extraordinary international gathering poised to transform San Diego’s sustainability paradigm. Co-hosted by the Kumeyaay and Maasai, the Forum will bring together global Indigenous leaders to engage in a dynamic panel discussion. Covering topics such as ecological health, welfare, art, culture, and resource sustainability, these panels offer diverse perspectives and practical insights to integrate Indigenous traditional knowledge and promote sustainable practices locally in San Diego. The event will also serve as the launch of a virtual reality program preserving cultural ceremonies and Indigenous heritage, aiming to foster cultural understanding, preserve traditions, and nurture empathy, amplifying Indigenous voices to celebrate cultural diversity. Participants will experience how the Maasai utilizes VR to document ancient Rites of Passage ceremonies recognized on UNESCO’s urgent safeguarding list, enrich intergenerational learning, champion Indigenous culture, and forge community connections to advance heritage preservation and appreciation. Attendees will also experience vibrant cultural entertainment, including traditional dances, music, and authentic heritage. These performances are not just captivating—they are crucial for education and fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of Indigenous peoples and their sustainable practices. Captivating cultural exhibits and art displays that showcase the rich heritage and creative expressions of Indigenous communities. These exhibits serve as powerful mediums for storytelling, expressing cultural values, and highlighting the interconnectedness between Indigenous peoples and the environment. The Indigenous Bazaar provides an engaging space to explore traditional clothing, crafts, and sustainable products. Highlighting Indigenous films, the event will showcase compelling works, including “We Are Guardians,” produced by award-winning filmmaker Leonardo DiCaprio. This film sheds light on Indigenous Peoples’ crucial role in safeguarding the Amazon Rainforest. Attendees will have a chance to meet Puyr Tembe, the lead figure in the film, whose activism in environmental justice is deeply inspiring, particularly her efforts in forest conservation in the Amazon. This is an opportunity to explore the rich traditions, sustainability practices, and contributions of Indigenous cultures—all in celebration of Native American Heritage Month. Join us as we advance sustainable initiatives on campus and beyond, fostering a diverse and inclusive community.
