by Michelle Saport |
Women in Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act Friday, March 23, 7-8 p.m. Rasmuson Hall, Room 101
The role of Alaska Native women has changed greatly with the implementation of the ANCSA; from baking cakes in order to raise funds for the men traveling to Washington, D.C. to sitting behind corporate desks making major decisions on behalf of the thousands of shareholders they now represent.
Come and celebrate National Women's History Month as four Alaska Native women share their journey to leadership in an Alaska Native Corporation.
Moderated by Hallie Bissett. Panelists include Sophie Minich (president and CEO of CIRI), Shauna Hegna (president of Koniag), Sheri Buretta (chairman of the Chugach Board of Directors) and Ana Hoffman (president and CEO of the Bethel Native Corporation).
This free event is part of the 2018 ANCSA Series, co-hosted by UAA College of Business and Public Policy, UAA Native Student Services, UAA Alaska Natives and Diversity, Alaska Native Professional Association, Alaska Native Village Corporation Association and Alaska Native Media Group
