Wozu Vision
To create a lifeline to the land connecting past and future generations.
Wozu is healing across generations
By restoring the health and connection between land, people and culture.
Regenerative practices restore more than soil– together, land, community, and cultural regeneration create lifelines of love and resilience.
These lifelines, built on our Lakota and Dakota values, are how we sustain ourselves through climate change and the enduring impacts of land loss.
What we’re learning here in Cannon Ball can heal land and communities across the world.

Wozu is Sowing Seeds of Regeneration
During the mass demonstrations against the Dakota Access Pipeline, we stood for our land and people — like we always have.
From this need for healing and protection, a movement was born: unprecedented unification across Native communities and the globe.
We were here before the world’s attention was on us. We’re still here today and we’re still the source of strength that will create long-lasting change.
The spotlight may come and go, but the conditions that put us at risk in the face of a pipeline development remain. Our people have largely been pushed out of the modern economy. The lands and waters that nourish are still at risk of degradation from a collapsing climate system.
Now, we need to recover the funding and resources that were stripped from us when the world’s attention left our community, so wthat we can continue to bring our vision to life.
“I was broken after the noDAPL fight. I didn’t trust anybody. It was through the land regeneration and our four-legged relatives that I learned to trust again.”
— Dave Archambault, CEO, Wozu
