The Indigenous Science and Peace Studies program offers students the opportunity to be immersed in courses bridging the two ways of knowing: Indigenous Science and Western Science. Students will participate in exchanges with Indigenous knowledge keepers, community leaders, scholars and scientists from around the globe. They will also be challenged to integrate Indigenous Science within their own work to create a balance between both ways of knowing within themselves. ISPS provides a unique way to nurture and create clear visions for the Earth’s renewal. The initial iteration of the program was created in 1993 as the world’s first accredited doctoral program taught from the perspective of Indigenous mind and science. The Master (M.A.) of Indigenous Science and Peace studies is the latest iteration of the program. The PhD is currently underway as well. The Prophecy of the Eagle and Condor, 1993.

Lys was born in the Kalagadi Transfrontier Park, which consists of the Southern tip of the Kalahari Desert. The /Khomani San still lived on their land after the Kalagadi Park was proclaimed in 1931, but were removed from their lands in 1976. From that time their lives still had a “nomadic theme” as they were moved to various places from Kalahari to the Cape. In 1999 they were part of the first successful Land claim in South Africa for the first people and received a small portion back of their Sacred Land. It is Lys’ dream that her people will remember who they are and embrace and heal on their land and share knowledge and their tradition with other Bushman tribes that were separated due to the imposing of country borders. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1628587917881-65HJ3P37DAV8W9U3PQ8Q/wk1+%283%29.jpg Indigenous Practitioners - Ilarion Merculieff Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

The son of the former leader of the Yawanawá, Tashka grew up witnessing the virtual enslavement of his people by the rubber industry and experiencing the near annihilation of the tribe’s culture buy missionaries. Since the 1980s, Tashka has actively fought for the rights of indigenous peoples. Realizing he needed further education to improve the conditions of his people, Tashka left the Amazon in 1998 to pursue higher education in the U.S. and abroad. While in the U.S., Tashka met his wife, Laura Soriano, a Mixteca-Zapoteca activist from Oaxaca, Mexico. Tashka was directly involved in the creation of the Non-Indigenous Youth Alliance through which he shares the experiences and knowledge of the Yawanawá with youth around the world, and works with projects that guarantee the preservation of different indigenous cultures. He and Laura also founded the Nawa Institute, an organization to serve indigenous communities. Tashka returned to the Amazon in 2001 and became the youngest chief in the history of the Yawanawá in 2002, when he assumed responsibility for 600 people – all that was left of his people and culture – and 165,000 hectares (400,000 acres) of Amazon rainforest in Brazil, all that was left of their traditional homeland. In just a few years, they managed to double the extent of Yawanawá territory (and population), begin the reinvigoration of the Yawanawá culture, and establish economically and socially empowering relationships with the outside world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1628588262033-IZWDOLODO92KNRN43Z88/virginia-floyd.jpeg Indigenous Practitioners - Virginia Davis Floyd Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

Kremer, Ph. D. His teaching and writing focuses on a decolonizing discourse of Whiteness, the history of modernist White self-constructions, and the critical reconstruction of European indigenous layers. I hope that out of the tears about the grievous things our ancestors have suffered and committed, amidst all the achievements, there will arise shared laughter and appreciation as the joy of the local truth ceases to be a call for dominance, and as people enjoy and appreciate each other's capacity for cross-cultural learning. Facing collective shadow material, the inclusion of the dark and light seem to prevent us from superficial nostalgia and dissociated romanticism in relation to any culture, and help us to move into the future through our connections with ancestral cultural roots. The remembrance of the web of stories that create who we are; the connection with the surrounding lands, community, and cultural history; the philosophical reflection upon our cultural premises; the dialogue of the various sciences with local knowledge and narratives, i.e. indigenous science these seem to be ways to open an avenue for rich multicultural inquiry and learning as well as the resolution of cultural wounds and the exploration of the liberating potential of ethnic constructions. Durable peace is only possible if we find ways to affirm and assert visionary and interconnected sovereignty that supersede the models modernity/colonialism has offered. My work is dedicated to diverse learning environments that elicit the teachers' and students' potentials through personal and scholarly inquiry for the sake of the communities to which they will dedicate their professional lives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1629211018369-454DQGZJ9OZXPYXVBSN6/Grace-Nono.jpg Faculty Biographies - Grace Nono, Ph.D. Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

Since that time, she has dedicated her work to empowering the cultural identity of indigenous people of Mexico and other countries in Latin America, and sharing their wisdom with appreciative audiences in the U.S. Her experience as an immigrant in the U.S. guided her to work with diverse ethnic populations of low-income and immigrant families as a family and community advocate for their educational and mental health needs. Her work with the Maya communities in Mexico planted a seed of curiosity in her to search for her own ancestral indigenous roots and traditions. While in California she completed the Masters program in Indigenous Mind. Looking to pass on this healing experience to others outside the academic settings, she co-founded the nonprofit organization Circle of Ancestors, where she is now President, and has been part of the growing international movement of reclaiming ancestral traditions and healing for several years. Her calling in the U.S. has been focused on remembering and connecting seekers in community back to their ancestral knowledge, traditions and ancestral practices as a path to personal and collective healing. Marcela has a BA degree in Psychology from University of Cordoba, Argentina, a BA in Expressive Movement, from Buenos Aires, and in U.S. she earned a Master’s degree in creation spirituality, with a concentration in Indigenous Mind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1629210975221-M2AJUW29YQF1K9JMXQI2/FaniaDavis%2Bheadshot%2Bcopy%2B2.jpg Faculty Biographies - Fania Davis, Ph.D., J.D.

Costa Rica was also the first permanent international tribunal that allowed individuals to take legal action against states on international law and human rights issues. With that as the backdrop, the General Assembly of the United Nations established the University for Peace (UPeace) in December 1980, a truly global university and the only of its kind based just outside of San Jose, Cost Rica. https://www.ispsprogram.org/funding-goals-3 daily 0.75 2021-09-02 https://www.ispsprogram.org/betty-jean-bastien-phd daily 0.75 2021-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1629210339546-B7ZK1AJUFCNH8BDNZ6FQ/Betty_bastien.jpg Betty Jean Bastien, Ph.D https://www.ispsprogram.org/apela-colorado-phd daily 0.75 2021-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1630539580385-AB5Y4SV62FPSR1YYP29E/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-08-13%2Bat%2B3.47.10%2BPM.png Apela Colorado, Ph.D. https://www.ispsprogram.org/fania-davis-phd-jd daily 0.75 2021-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1630539752751-124UM05LPBPH7ZAEB41H/FaniaDavis+headshot+copy+2.jpg Fania Davis, Ph.D., J.D. https://www.ispsprogram.org/catherine-hoppers-phd daily 0.75 2021-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1629210993392-JH5PFXK601RAT25NH2I4/_1404ret.jpg Catherine Hoppers, Ph.D. https://www.ispsprogram.org/jrgen-w-kremer-ph-d daily 0.75 2021-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60efb5c369a2de7d158abf22/1630540348990-CJONR9IUCXZ1Z0COX3L0/JWK+Bodega.jpg Jürgen W.
