About Ohneganos
Our program is made up of two main projects: Co-Creation of Indigenous Water Quality Tools and Ohneganos - Indigenous Ecological Knowledge, Training, and Co-Creation of Mixed-Method Tools.
Project Team
Water is connected to everything! This is reflected in our interdisciplinary team of academics, local experts, and project partners. A holistic approach to water helps us harmonize Indigenous Knowledge and Western Science.
Learning Materials
Part of our work involves producing a number of ‘tools’ and educational resources for Indigenous communities to build resilience and empower youth.
Investing in Indigenous youth and developing grassroots solutions are needed to ensure a water secure future!
United Nations SDGs
This project supports many of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG6: Clean Water and Sanitation.
We’re also featured as an ongoing ‘success story’ for the 2018-2028 Decade for Action on Water.
