How can the UA adhere to its land-grant mission given a contemporary, global context and as students, faculty and staff are engaged in research, teaching and service initiatives not constrained by state or even national boundaries?

The University of Arizona is a Tohono O’odham land-grant university. The O’odham word “I-we:mta” emphasizes reciprocal collaboration—one in which everyone is assisting, guiding, and working with and for each other. Indigenous knowledges, praxis, and research methodologies decolonize and search for socially just ways of doing, being, and knowing in all educational contexts.
