This workshop experience will assist you as you move forward in your reconciliation journey. We will deepen our understanding about decolonization in our community and learn about how we can increase cultural safety for those with Indigenous ancestry. From this learning comes an increased understanding of respectful ways of engaging and working collaboratively to build more culturally safe systems. The participants will have a cognitive and emotional understanding of traditional First Nations values. This learning echoes the sentiments and goals of the TRC Calls to Action and The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).
All are encouraged and welcome to join. Let’s continue walking this path together 🤲
