The Pascua Yaqui Tribe–University of Arizona (PYT-UA) Microcampus celebrated the achievements of students who completed the Professional Development Certificate in Tribal Courts and Justice Administration during a special graduation ceremony held on Friday, May 23, from 4:00 to 6:00 PM

An entrepreneur and member of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe, Gomez spent 10 years working at Casino Del Sol before realizing that there are more opportunities for growth for a Native.

The game was the university's second annual Land Acknowledgement Game, designed to recognize the contributions and traditions of Native American communities in Arizona and beyond.

Brought to you by Native Voices in Film, the Sustainability Film Series, the Pascua Yaqui Tribe and The Loft Cinema, join in for a FREE evening of activities, education, discussion and a screening of the documentary film "A Reflection of Life."

“It's easy to say, well, you know, the tribes in Arizona were colonized and then put on reservations,” Faculty Co-Chair of the Indigenous Peoples’ Law and Policy Program Robert Williams said. “But that's not where the story ends because where did that land go that wasn't included in the reservation.”

You are invited to join this two day symposium on Thursday March 21 to Friday March 22 exploring the intersections of racism, colonialism and conservation and calling for an environmental justice movement based on Indigenous Peoples Human Rights.

Sign up now for a 65% discount for the Professional Development Certificate in Tribal Courts and Justice Administration available online via the Pascua Yaqui Tribe - University of Arizona Microcampus starting January 10 2024.

The goal of this campaign is to inform and influence authoritative decision-makers, donors, non-governmental organizations, journalists, and other audiences and constituencies on the impact of existing and proposed protected areas and conservation measures on the human rights of Indigenous Peoples.

The speaker Fiore Longo will shed light on the critical connection between Indigenous land rights and biodiversity conservation, challenging prevailing conservation paradigms rooted in colonialism, racism, and social injustice.
