About this Event
The Annual Statewide Elders & Youth Conference is hosted by First Alaskans Institute (FAI) in partnership with our community. This year's theme, K’ets’e kk’ʉdaa neehʉghleł (Denaakk'e, Koyukon Athabascan) — "We are approaching change" — was inspired by the concept of Adapting to Changing Landscapes.
Elders & Youth provides a special opportunity to live and love who we are as Alaska Native peoples, build strong relationships with one another, identify and advance solutions for the challenges and opportunities facing our communities, explore our creative worlds, and contribute to the greater community through the transference of knowledge between generations.
