Who Are We?
We are environmental consultants who believe that the best solutions come from the communities we serve—not from boardrooms hundreds of miles away.
Navari Strategies was founded by environmental professionals who witnessed firsthand how tribal communities and underserved populations were too often sidelined in environmental decision-making, despite bearing the greatest impacts of climate change and environmental degradation.
We built this firm on a simple belief: the communities closest to environmental challenges are the ones best positioned to solve them, and they deserve partners who respect that truth. Operating nationwide as a remote-first firm, we bring our expertise directly to tribal nations, government agencies, and communities across all 50 states, ensuring geography is never a barrier to accessing quality environmental consulting.
Our Mission
At Navari Strategies, we partner with Native American tribes, state and federal agencies, local governments, and underserved communities to achieve their energy, climate, and environmental goals through culturally respectful, equity-centered approaches. We transform environmental challenges into achievable milestones by combining community wisdom with technical execution, serving as both your trusted advisor and implementation partner committed to creating lasting impact and building your community’s long-term environmental leadership.
Our Values
These principles guide how we approach every project, partnership, and decision:
Tribal Sovereignty First – We center tribal self-determination in all our work, ensuring tribes lead their own environmental futures. Your vision drives the process; our expertise supports it.
True Collaborative Partnership – We work alongside communities as equals, not as outside experts dictating solutions. We listen first, co-create strategies, and build capacity so your team can sustain progress long after our engagement ends.
Cultural Respect & Environmental Justice – We honor diverse knowledge systems, sacred practices, and traditional ecological wisdom. We prioritize equity in access to resources, funding, and decision-making power.
Technical Excellence with Integrity – We combine rigorous environmental expertise with genuine relationship-building. You receive honest guidance, transparent processes, and consultants committed to your long-term success.
Results-Driven Implementation – We deliver actionable strategies designed for real-world execution. From grant management to program oversight, we ensure your environmental initiatives move from planning to measurable outcomes.
Our Goals
These are the tangible impacts we’re working to achieve with and for our partners:
Build Tribal and Community Capacity – Strengthen leadership and technical expertise so tribes and underserved communities independently drive their own energy transitions, conservation efforts, and environmental protection for generations.
Advance Environmental Justice and Equity – Ensure underserved communities access the same quality environmental programs, technical expertise, and funding opportunities as well-resourced areas.
Drive Successful Project Implementation – Navigate complex funding landscapes (federal grants, state programs, private funding) to secure resources and shepherd programs from strategic planning through completion.
Create Lasting Environmental Impact – Design and execute projects that deliver enduring benefits—clean energy systems, protected natural resources, climate resilience—that serve communities across decades, not just grant cycles.
Strengthen Cross-Sector Collaboration – Bridge gaps between tribal nations, government agencies, and local communities to create coordinated environmental strategies that respect sovereignty while leveraging collective resources.
