Maga’haga Lou Leon Guerrero established GIHA, the Guam Indigenous Heritage Alliance by Executive Order No. 2021-06 on March 12, 2021 as a vehicle for cohesive, coordinated, and cross-department movement and strategic planning toward CHamoru self- determination, decolonization, and cultural sovereignty.
The member agencies of GIHA are:
- The Department of CHamoru Affairs/Senator Antonio M. Palomo, Guam Museum
- Kumisión i Fino’ CHamoru yan i Fina’nå’guen i Historia yan i Lina’la’ i Taotao Tåno’
- The Commission on Decolonization
- The Historic Resources Division of the Department of Parks and Recreation
They serve under the Office of the Governor of Guam. The key agencies comprising GIHA were authorized to establish networks and partnerships with other governmental entities and/or non-governmental organizations. The Kumisión offered to provide administrative support to GIHA members at their meetings and to keep GIHA records for the first few years. Since its establishment, GIHA members have met regularly and supported each other’s missions. The Kumisión is fully committed to continuing its partnerships with GIHA members and network of CHamoru-centered and CHamoru-serving organizations.
