A new online magazine, Indigenous Stewards, provides American Indians an opportunity and platform to discuss the environmental issues that impact their everyday lives, health, and communities. Born out of the NIEHS-funded Native Environmental Health Stories Project, a collaborative effort between the Community Engagement Core (CEC) within the University of Arizona's Southwest Environmental Health Sciences Center (SWEHSC) and the University of Washington's Center for Ecogenetics and Environmental Health (CEEH), the publication aims to raise awareness, foster discussions, spark ideas, and provoke questions about environmental health issues across tribal communities, ultimately cultivating future generations of Indigenous stewards.
