The Lo—TEK Institute is inspired by the philosophy of radical indigenism from citizen of the Cherokee Nation, Professor Eva Marie Garoutte. Radical indigenism argues for a rebuilding of knowledge and explores indigenous philosophies capable of generating new dialogues.

The institute works to empower communities whose knowledge systems have been violently dismissed across educational and environmental spheres, while also guiding non-indigenous communities on how to understand and apply traditional and indigenous knowledge in a respectful and responsible way. Supported by a community of educators, knowledge keepers, architects, designers, founders, historians, philosophers and environmental advocates, the institute engages in research and projects across the globe that enhance nature based technologies and environmental literacy.
