PAJARITO LANDMARKS PROJECT
Honor Community Knowledge
The Pajarito Landmarks project seeks to increase community accessibility, connectivity, safety, and visibility to acequias in the Pajarito Community of Albuquerque. Throughout the project, CESOSS’ Cultivando Nuestro Futuro Leadership Institute will work closely with the Pajarito community to create five interactive signs along the Pajarito acequia. Each sign will have a specific focus in which community members’ knowledge will be honored.
