The Meaning of Illahee
Illahee is Chinook jargon word for place or world.
Who we are
​
Illahee is an idea of an all-encompassing relationship that ties the people of a place to the land and each other. We hope to foster sovereignty and build reciprocity with the people who embody traditional knowledge systems to protect the environment we all inhabit.
What we do
​
Placemaking is a collaborative effort to reclaim public spaces to reinvent them as the heart of a community. It is a way to strengthen the bonds between people and the area in which they live --a way for the people to see themselves reflected in the community they are a part of. Indigenous placemaking will help to give voice to the Indigenous community and promote dialogue through storytelling and education.
Illahee presents not just the past tribal communities or natural history -- it supports and engages with an ever evolving and dynamic culture.
