The Restoring Balance Collaborative is convening A Meeting of Sacred Waters 2026 to collectively restore the health of the world’s water sources as part of our ancestral responsibilities to future generations.  Indigenous wellbeing is inseparable from land, water, culture and self-determination. We invite you to join us as relatives who share our mission to safeguard and care for Indigenous well-being and our natural water sources amid a changing climate.  

Sacred Waters brings Indigenous leaders, practitioners, and land and water stewards together to:

• Catalyze Indigenous-led systems changes through relational approaches to water and health
• Strengthen cultural connection and shared responsibility 
• Inspire practical solutions to protect the most vulnerable waterways across Turtle Island and the Pacific

Event details: 

• Dates: June 22-25, 2026
• Location: Isleta Pueblo Resort, Albuquerque, New Mexico
• Theme: Remembering the Past Into the Present
