The Native American Rangeland Training Initiative (NARTI) is a partnership between the Society for Range Management, tribal governments, and other tribal organizations to help tribal natural resource staff address challenges that impact the sustainable management of rangelands on tribal lands. This initiative facilitates the collaboration with tribal partners and federal agencies to implement a long-term initiative that addresses several critical disconnects that impact the sustainable management of rangelands in Indian Country. Tribal partners agreed that it was essential to train and support tribal staff in their efforts to manage rangelands and other natural resources for tribal members and on tribal lands. In addition, this effort provides support for federal and local agency staff who work with tribes in natural resource management, and also facilitates learning and collaboration between tribes, agencies, and academic institutions. NARTI offers a series of FREE online courses followed by customized on-the-ground workshops.
Articles, citations, reports, websites, and multimedia resources focused on rangeland ecology, management, restoration, and other issues on American rangelands.
