Association of American Geographers (AAG) Annual Meeting 2023

March 27, 2023
Denver, Colorado

Session: Indigenous Cultural Resilience in Urban Environments.

In a rapidly changing world, urbanization is one of the defining signs of ongoing demographic, social, cultural, and economic transformations. The urbanization trend among Indigenous Peoples is likely to accelerate in the future due to climate and social changes. Given the speed and intensity with which Indigenous urbanization is taking place, it is crucial to shed light on the Indigenous cultural resilience of Indigenous urbanites and emerging urban Indigenous identities. Unveiling, understanding, and valuing Indigenous urban livelihoods is an important task with respect to research and policy making, but most crucially, in terms of individual and collective self-determination of the Indigenous Peoples.
