Good Fire Healing Coalition- A partnership with Blue Lake Rancheria
Blue Lake Rancheria’s (BLR) ‘Good Fire Healing Coalition’ looks to build a regional team of Indigenous women cultural burners to be
housed at the Rancheria. The project will enact fire management regimes on recently acquired fee title lands. Fire management regimes, including prescribed and cultural burns, will be implemented for the restoration of pyrodependent ecosystems and cultural resources, supporting food sovereignty and Traditional Ecological Knowledge resurgence. Burn implementation will be the subject
of research through demonstration data collection, hands-on site restoration, and impact assessment on cultural resources; they also act as training workshops.
This program will include a formal partnership with the Rou Dalagurr: Food Sovereignty
Lab and Traditional Ecological Knowledges Institute (FSL) at Cal Poly Humboldt, who will develop a Cultural Fire Literacy Certification, support Cultural Burn Team training, and a Fire-Centered Climate Action Plan.
