Poster: U.S. Bureau of Reclamation's Farm Rehabilitation Project Collaborations with the Navajo and Tohono O'odham Tribes in Arizona, as Implemented by Archaeological Consulting Services

Summary

Reclamation projects have involved collaborative efforts with two of Arizona’s largest Native American groups, the Navajo Nation and the Tohono O’odham Nation. Both involved construction of infrastructure to support traditional and cooperative farming. The Navajo Nation project involved the creation of an award-winning DVD of Navajo elders discussing traditional irrigation farming at Ganado, and the Tohono O’odham Nation project involved extensive testing prior to construction of new irrigation pipelines for their farm cooperative. This poster presents examples of close collaboration between a federal agency, Native American tribal members, and cultural resource consultants to ensure mutually beneficial outcomes.

Here you can find the poster and its accompanying hand-out.
