‘Our Ways of Life’
Oct. 12-21, 2023
Dena’ina Civic and Convention Center, Anchorage
The largest representative annual gathering of Native peoples in the U.S., the Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN) Convention celebrates culture and unity with traditional Alaska Native art, entertainment and food. It also addresses critical issues of public policy and government, such as federal funds for disaster recovery, digital equity and inclusion, and rural public safety and infrastructure.
This year’s Convention keynote speakers include CIRI President and CEO Sophie Minich!
“We know Sophie will do an incredible job of integrating our ways of life into her remarks and showcasing our people,” AFN President Julie Kitka said. “The leadership Sophie provides is based on years of contributions to the Alaska Native community, the state of Alaska and our nation. We are honored she will be sharing her wisdom.”
