YOUTH SPEAKER.
Nee-Yu Marcus, a Tolowa, Yurok, and Maidu indigenous youth, lives on Klamath and Molalla land at the McKenzie River watershed (Oregon, US). Nee-Yu has been involved in regenerative land stewardship since she was a child recognizing the importance of living and growing food with the land, not against it. Nee-Yu also wants to bring attention to, and organize her community around, the connection between traditional resource management and combatting the current climate crisis.
