| In 2024, Coyote Institute advanced its mission to bring Indigenous wisdom to the modern world through the following initiatives: 1) Annual Two-Eyed Seeing Conference - Hosted in Augusta, Maine, this flagship event brought together over 100 participants to explore the intersection of Indigenous and Western healing practices. 2) International Workshops and Community-Based Retreats - Coyote Institute hosted eight events throughout the year in the United States and internationally. Programming focused on therapeutic storytelling, agency building, and healing through narrative and Indigenous practices, fostering cross-cultural understanding and holistic well-being. 3) Academic and Professional Engagement - Members of the Institute presented at prestigious annual meetings in psychiatry, neurology, and medical education, demonstrating their interdisciplinary and international approach to knowledge-sharing. 4) Scholarly Publication - Coyote Institute published the 2025 edition of Etuaptmumk: The Journal of Two-Eyed Seeing, continuing its commitment to advancing scholarship that bridges Indigenous knowledge and contemporary science. | $0 | $60,583 |
