ANILCA Seminars |
At the request of Congress, the Institute of the North created a detailed and in-depth training curriculum on the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (ANILCA) of 1980. The curriculum illuminates the Alaska context for this sweeping and historic lands act and explains, in detail, its unique aspects.
The goal is to help all stakeholders, including federal agency personnel, state government leaders and land managers, Native corporate staff, inholders and the general public to better understand this pervasive and controversial law so it can be implemented fully and fairly.
The Institute of the North ANILCA seminars have been held in Anchorage, Juneau, and Fairbanks. For more information, contact Nancy Hemsath, Institute of the North at 907.771.2443 or nhemsath@institutenorth.org.
