Welcome to the Winds of Change 2019 National Conference Wrap-Up issue! The pictures and stories inside bring back great memories of that incredible event in Milwaukee. If you weren’t able to be with us, we hope you can share in the energy and inspiration through this special issue. Everywhere, attendees were busy “Indigenizing the Future of STEM,” whether they were exploring at STEM Activity Day, investigating career options at the Networking Suites, or charting their own future among the myriad opportunities at the College and Career Fair. As always, the sessions were a destination for conference-goers at all stages along their STEM paths — there was truly something for everyone. Be sure to check out an overview of several of them in “Learning’s in Session.”

  • Tribal Strategies for Combating Climate Change
  • 25 Native Stem Enterprises to Watch
  • 2019 AISES Professional Award Winners
  • Career Builder: Fellowships, Workshops, and more

We’re happy to reach so many of our members with this Fall 2019 issue of Winds of Change. Besides letting Indigenous scientists and aspiring scientists know about the latest AISES news and the expanding benefits AISES offers, a principal goal of our publications is providing support and encouragement. You will see that the AISES family is there for you as you read through these pages, spotlighting successful Indigenous role models in AISES People, offering guidance on your STEM path in Career Builder and Paths in Education, and spreading good news of members in AISES Notebook. Each year at this time we publish a story of 25 Native STEM Enterprises to Watch. These organizations will inspire you with the creativity of Indigenous entrepreneurs and the growing reach of their businesses in so many fields of endeavor. Also inspiring is the story of what tribal communities are doing to prepare for the potentially disastrous effects of climate change. Combining that knowledge with 21st-century technology, as these tribes are doing, should leave them well positioned to cope with climate change and sustain the vital signs of Mother Earth. In addition, with the profiles of this year’s winners of the AISES Professional Awards, this edition of Winds of Change is especially rich in examples of Natives in STEM who are not only achieving success in their own right, they are living the AISES mission.

  • Top Jobs in Computer Science: Where to look for strong potential career growth
  • Managing Ancestral Lands in an Era of Climate Change: 21st-century technology augments traditional stewardship
  • Moms in Science: One mother’s story

Welcome to the Summer 2019 issue of Winds of Change! In this issue, you can read about STEM professionals who are using their STEM skills to benefit their developing communities. You’ll meet specialists like Paul Crocker of Menominee Tribal Enterprises who is helping the foresters make better decisions through GIS. Learn how applying such innovative technology to the challenge of managing tribal forests, land, and natural resources isn’t supplanting the knowledge of those “past foresters,” but making it more nimble in these challenging times. In "AISES People," starting on page 8, find stories about amazing members like Dr. Grace Bulltail who shares, “My Crow heritage is central to my identity and my values.” And as always, catch up with news from AISES and other members in AISES Notebook.
