Facing a climate crisis, the Reciprocity Project embraces Indigenous value systems that have bolstered communities since the dawn of humanity. To heal, we must recognize that we are in a relationship with Earth, and that the reciprocity of that relationship was balanced until the modern industrial age.

This short film series and multimedia platform invites learning from time-honored and current Indigenous ways of being. In Season 1 of the Reciprocity Project, storytellers and community partners created films in response to a question: What does "reciprocity" mean to your community?
