The ‘Water is Life’ Legal Summit, presented by Keepers of the Water and the Indigenous Knowledge and Wisdom Centre, shed light on topics related to Indigenous sovereignty and the protection of water from an Indigenous worldview.

Keepers of the Water and Indigenous Knowledge Wisdom Center are pleased to present this two-day in-person gathering. Indigenous people have stewarded the land since the beginning of time, we hold the answers to protecting water and this will be discussed by looking further at the following topics; UNDRIP, Doctrine of Discovery, Free Prior and Informed Consent, Criminalization of Indigenous people on our lands, The Indian Act, Canadian Legal System vs. Indigenous Legal Systems, Alberta Regulatory System, Before Contact, Looking at how much Canada spends fighting Indigenous people in the colonial court systems, and The Alberta Tarsands Tailings Ponds and the threats to Water and how this infringes on Indigenous Rights.
