WOMAN IN WATER
Adventurepiece Archives
We’re honored to revisit the story of Gwendena Lee-Gatewood—mother, wife, sister, leader, and a powerful advocate for Indigenous communities. As the former Chairwoman of the White Mountain Apache Tribe and Co-Chair of the Indigenous Women’s Leadership Network, her commitment to protecting water, culture, and future generations runs deep.
This feature highlights the mission and vision of the Indigenous Women’s Leadership Network—a platform created to support Indigenous women leading the way in water and natural resource issues across Indian Country.
From the Colorado River Basin to the heart of the White Mountains of Arizona, their work builds relationships, empowers leaders, and shapes the future.
This is more than leadership—it’s legacy. It’s an Adventurepiece. #chucktaylorphotographer #adventurepiece #adventurepiecearchives #womaninwater #indigenousleadership #whitemountainsofarizona #visitwhitemountainsaz #showlowaz #pinetopaz #lakesideaz #communityleadership #i
