The Alaska Tribal Resilience Learning Network (AK TRLN) is a community of learning, sharing, technical assistance, training, and support for Alaska Tribes, Leadership, and Indigenous communities as they respond and adapt to the current and future impacts of climate change.

The Learning Network builds collaborative and meaningful relationships with Alaska Native Tribes and other entities in order to address management and adaptation needs across the state and provide access and interpretation of the best available climate adaptation science for decision-making at the local scale.

This system of support is designed for Alaska Tribes and Indigenous communities that are working towards their climate adaptation priorities. Alaska Tribes and Indigenous communities working on Tribal climate adaptation plans are encouraged to participate in the learning network.
