ARO represents the interests of the original peoples of the San Francisco Peninsula. Its purpose is to uphold the ancestral responsibilities of caring for Mother Earth and the people who reside in their ancestral homeland.
ARO has been collaborating with the California Academy of Sciences to inform our key initiatives and work to regenerate California ecosystems, part of our shared missions to protect our planet.
As part of the Academy’s mission to regenerate the natural world through science, learning, and collaboration, the partnership with ARO allows us to learn traditional practices of regenerating our ecosystems, placing humans as a part of these systems, and using Indigenous knowledge to make them stronger and more resilient.
