Elia Lockhart And Lisa Wolgram

Alongside Research and Consulting, operating as Elia Lockhart & Lisa Wolgram, is an Indigenous-owned consulting partnership that collaborates with First Nations, Indigenous organizations, governments, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations to develop community-driven solutions grounded in Indigenous knowledge and priorities. We specialize in Indigenous education, curriculum and resource development, community and Elder engagement, strategic planning, research, facilitation, land and water stewardship, youth programming, and project coordination. Our work supports the revitalization and sharing of Indigenous knowledge systems while advancing community capacity, cultural continuity, environmental stewardship, and self-determination. 

Working alongside communities, we design and deliver educational programs, professional learning, community engagement initiatives, research projects, funding proposals, and strategic resources that reflect local values, histories, and aspirations. Our approach is relationship-based, collaborative, and responsive, ensuring each project is guided by the voices and priorities of the communities we serve. We are committed to creating meaningful, culturally grounded outcomes that strengthen communities today while supporting future generations.
