Entry Description

Living Trails is a participatory framework that bridges Indigenous knowledge, design and sustainability to reimagine how policy & community action emerge. It creates space for communities, researchers & policymakers to co-create futures grounded in justice, regeneration & reciprocity. Through interactive tools like the trade blanket, it transforms policy design into collective learning and social innovation—where mutual learning, eco-stewardship & ancestral teachings of kinship with nature guide action toward ecological balance and shared wellbeing within the safe and just space for humanity.
