Become a Speaker
“As a Tribal Archivist that works with historic and digital materials, it is vital to increase the visibility of - and challenge the negative narrative - about Native Nations and peoples in American society. Becoming a speaker interested me because there is a need for students and educators to learn about the contemporary Native experience which is centered around innovation, creativity, resilience and community. The GLL provides a space for those voices to reach classrooms around the world. Their platform contributes to illumination of contemporary Native voices, stories, and issues.”
Who can become a speaker?
Do you have unique insight into a particular skill or a topic? Can you talk with others about who you are, what you do, how you got to where you are, where you live, and why you do what you do? Can you answer questions in detail?
If you answered yes to most of these questions, it is likely that you can be a speaker, and that there are many people out there who will find value in what you have to say. Isn’t that something that we all wish for? That others can learn from what we know? And that we can learn something in return?

“The opportunity to share the Burrenbeo Trust’s approach to Place-based Learning in the delivery of Education Programmes and the celebration of Winterage practices with an international audience was very valuable. The conference introduced me to an interesting and engaged community of learners and it was an honour to represent my organisation and connect with others involved in the conservation of cultural heritage.”
