Collaboration

Collaboration

Our work is made real through community: supporting policies that protect tribal lands and cultural resources, aligning modern energy goals with traditional values, and fostering relationships rooted in trust. We create impact by building workforce development programs, economic opportunities for Native students, and sustainable energy pathways that uplift Native communities.

Centering Tribal Voices

We work with the DOE’s Collaborative Siting Consortia for Consolidated Interim Storage, leading tribal outreach efforts in relocating spent nuclear fuel. Our goal is to create an inclusive, transparent process where tribal nations have a say in decisions affecting their lands and communities.

Collaboration & Stewardship

Historically, many infrastructure projects, including nuclear energy development, have been undertaken without true consideration of the affected tribal communities. Native Nuclear believes in the power of tribal collaboration as essential to sovereignty, cultural respect, and long-term stewardship.

Coalition & Partnership

Native Nuclear invites state legislatures, tribal groups, and stakeholders to advance collaboration-based energy infrastructure projects. Together, we can foster sustainable and respectful dialogue that honors tribal sovereignty for the benefit of all communities involved.
