2025 Semi-Annual CORaL Network Meeting

The Community Organized Restoration and Learning (CORaL) Network recently met in Anchorage at the Alaska Native Heritage Center Athabascan Ceremonial House for its semi-annual meeting. During the semi-annual meeting, the CORaL Network partners took turns laying out their work plan for programming and events over the next few years and identifying areas of future collaboration among different partners in the Network. The CORaL Network partners also met with newly appointed external evaluators, the Headwater People, who will work on the CORaL Network grant as external evaluators for the next few years. Throughout the meeting, CORaL Network partners got to work through several exercises, including gut-check questions, developing a plan for conflict resolution within the Network, and planning out what success in the CORaL Network feels like, looks like, and creates. All this work is critical to bettering the relationships and furthering the work plan to meet the founding pathways of the CORaL Network.
