Today, we stand united in spirit and purpose as we reaffirm our commitment to our land, our ancestors, and our future generations. With reverence for Yoodughi, the wisdom of our elders, and the hope carried by our youth, we honor our sacred Bahl’ats system—a bond that unites us in both times of challenge and celebration. Our shared declaration reminds us to respect every living being on our Mother Land, to seek harmony in our differences, and to carry our traditions forward with love and care.

As we welcome newcomers to our lands, we extend our vision of unity and mutual respect. We commit to open dialogue, guided by the principles of fairness and compassion, to build a just and lasting relationship with all who join us. Together, under the watchful guidance of our ancestors and the promise of our shared future, we stand as one—ensuring that our people, our language, and our culture continue to flourish.

Let this declaration serve as both our beacon and our promise: to nurture, protect, and celebrate our collective identity as we journey forward, hand in hand, heart with heart.
