The Achein Center for Lifelong Education (CLE) is the newest organizational development within IAIA and represents the tribal outreach, technical services, extended education and cultural exchange component of the Institute. The Center is focused on Indigenous ways of learning and knowing and serves Indian populations in the state, the four corners region and nationally.
Internationally, the CLE partners with the W. K. Kellogg Foundation to serve Indigenous peoples in seven countries in southern Africa. It provides a wide range of high quality outreach in education, training, technical assistance and capacity development opportunities for Indigenous people and tribes.
The CLE’s nine priority areas are:
- arts and humanities
- culturally based economic development
- culture, language and land
- education and youth
- family, community and world development
- health and wellness
- law and justice
- leadership and tribal governance
- technology
The nine priority areas for the Achein Center for Lifelong Education can be witnessed in the events it offers to Indigenous communities.
