Faith Gemmill is the current Program Director for the Gwich'in
Steering Committee which was created in 1988 as the political arm
of the Gwich'in Nation to protect the fundamental human rights of
the Gwich'in. The Committee seeks permanent protection of the sacred
birthplace of the Porcupine River Caribou Herd located in the coastal
plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge from proposed oil development.
Faith is also a field representative with the International Indian
Treaty Council (IITC) which represents Indigenous Peoples of the
Western Hemisphere at the United Nations. She continues to work
at the international level in various forums addressing human rights
issues that impact indigenous peoples. Faith currently serves as
a Board of Director for the National Wildlife Federation, and as
a Board of Director for Project Underground, which supports the
human rights of communities resisting oil and mining exploitation.
