UNH Land, Water and Life Acknowledgement

As we all journey on the trail of life, we wish to acknowledge the spiritual and physical connection the Pennacook, Abenaki and Wabanaki Peoples have maintained to N’dakinna (homeland) and the aki (land), nebi (water), olakwika (flora) and awaasak (fauna) that the University of New Hampshire community is honored to steward today. We also acknowledge the hardships they continue to endure after the loss of unceded homelands and champion the university’s responsibility to foster relationships and opportunities that strengthen the well-being of the Indigenous People who carry forward the traditions of their ancestors.

 

A Message from Dean Anthony S. Davis

I am deeply committed to leading a college that is recognized for its commitment to being an equitable and inclusive place of work and study for our students, staff and faculty. Through the uniqueness of our people and our shared passion for science, education and humanity, we can achieve greatness. Whether from the Granite State or the far reaches of the world, our community of scholars is one which sees hope in the future we share. Our intellectual pursuits are empowered by our commitment to building a secure and resilient future for our ecosystems and communities.

The work of our alumni, students and employees continues to inspire and drive forward economies and environments across the Granite State and around the world, as it has for generations.
