The activities and processes of regional and city planning\, including land management and regulation\, community visioning\, resourc e protection and economic development\; all have long been important for American Indian tribes in North America as a way of protecting and enhanc ing the local quality of life (Jojola 2000).\n\n\nHowever\, Tribal planni ng on Tribal lands (often referred to as "Indian Country") is done in a d ifferent political\, legal and social context\, with a different set of c onstraints and opportunities than planning scenarios found in the dominan t culture. Thus\, Tribal planning has emerged as both a subset of the lar ger planning enterprise and as a tool to reassert sovereignty. In his pre sentation\, Harris will discuss these broader concepts using examples fro m a climate change vulnerability study he worked on with five Nations in Oklahoma.
