Archaeology Southwest, a nonprofit organization headquartered in Tucson, Ariz., is a national leader in Preservation Archaeology, a holistic approach to exploring and protecting heritage places while honoring their diverse values. In Grant County and across the Southwest, the organization stewards heritage properties and conservation easements, advocates for landscape-scale protection, conducts low-impact research, and mobilizes research results through outreach to the public and decision-makers. Archaeology Southwest is committed to continuous collaborations with Indigenous communities. John will provide an overview of Archeology Southwest’s current activities, recent research, and hot topic preservation issues.
Welch directs the Landscape and Site Protection Program at Archaeology Southwest and is a founding member of the board for the Fort Apache Heritage Foundation and previously served as a director on the boards of the National Association of Tribal Historic Preservation Officers and the Arizona Wilderness Coalition. Welch is also a professor, jointly appointed in the Department of Archaeology and the School of Resource and Environmental Management at Simon Fraser University. His published works center on Apache history and applied archaeology.
