Global Center for Indigenous Leadership and Lifeways

Bringing ancient Indigenous ways of
knowing and wisdom into modern times

The Global Center for Indigenous Leadership and Lifeways (GCILL) is an informal umbrella created to support long-term and short-term projects that educate and inform people about Indigenous ways, raise human consciousness, and co-create a harmonious relationship with Mother Earth.

The core focus of GCILL is to share the messages of Elders and wisdom keepers, including GCILL’s founder, 'Kuuyux' Ilarion (Larry) Merculieff, while helping other-selves and Mother Earth.

Our Initiatives

“In these prophetic times where human beings are pushing the Earth Mother’s life support systems to the brink, it is imperative to do whatever is possible to elevate human consciousness. We must heal the separation from self, others and Mother Earth. This separation is the root cause for all the human dysfunctions that are destroying Mother Earth and ourselves.”
