Colorado Law has a long history of research and teaching about the law of indigenous peoples. With the arrival of Dean James Anaya, the law school is expanding its research and teaching in this area. Faculty and students are engaged in projects with indigenous groups, the United Nations, other intergovernmental bodies, national governments, NGOs, and companies throughout the Americas and the world on issues concerning indigenous peoples. Research and teaching in this area also connects with Colorado's strengths in other areas, such as international law, natural resources, and intellectual property.
