We’ve seen where hate has got us. It’s time for change.

In a time of global uncertainty, rising division, and shifting geopolitics, gathering is no longer optional. It’s necessary.

At INIHKD 2026, RIEL for Future Generations, we convene not just to respond to the world as it is, but to be the best ancestor we can be and shape the world we want to leave behind.

Now more than ever, we must come together as Indigenous peoples to protect and carry forward our knowledge, our resilience, our strength, and our love for future generations.

The world is changing rapidly. The pressures facing our communities are real. That’s why gathering matters now more than ever.

At RIEL for Future Generations, we come together across nations, waters, and generations to share knowledge, strengthen global relationships, reimagine futures, and carry forward the responsibilities entrusted to us.

We gather to Reclaim Indigenous Ecologies of Love so the next generations inherits our progress, our knowledges, our intergenerational wisdom, our resilience, and the fire to keep going.
