World Conference of Indigenous Women 2013
Agnes Williams - Seneca
Native Seneca woman Agnes Williams notices the consequences of climate change and contamination in her community.

Seneca people and indigenous communities near Williams have been protesting and working to clean up the area.
Maasai Indigenous People Of Kenya and Their Food Systems
Maasai are semi-nomadic pastoralists who migrate within semi-arid lowlands and more humid uplands to obtain water and pasture. The large majority of them obtain their livelihood through husbandry of cattle, goat and sheep. Their food culture is very unique as they rely on meat, milk and blood from cattle for protein and energy needs. But lately with the gradual loss of elder members of the Maasai community who carry most of this people’s indigenous knowledge, Maasai indigenous communities are losing their customary practices.
