ReconciliAction: Decolonize and Indigenize to renew our Nation-to-Nation Relationship.
Topic: Spiritual-Being
Do you ever wonder how might non-Indigenous peoples work with Indigenous knowledge and ways of being in educational spaces? What about Nation-to-Nation Indigenous allyship? Have you felt fearful of interweaving Indigenous knowledge and ways of being into your school system? Have you ever been discouraged when trying to interweave Indigenous knowledge in your spaces? This workshop will begin with first knowing the self as an ally in relation to Decolonizing and Indigenizing colonial institutions and will continue with a discussion on practical tools and strategies for Decolonizing and Indigenizing spaces.

Education and Reconciliation: Moving forward together

Canada’s 150th is a time to celebrate, renew and rebuild our relationships. Indigenous education is a reciprocal process that includes cultures, traditions, and histories and engages students, staff, parents, and community partners to collaborate for student success. Closing the gap in Indigenous education is critical for the future of Canada. The National Gathering is a place where educators and partners can share their experiences and work together to improve the educational outcomes of K- 12 Indigenous students. This conference is another step towards reconciliation and presents workshops within four categories: knowing, feeling, doing, being.

Celebrating and exploring our rich Indigenous cultures, traditions, and histories; this conference engages educators, and community partners to collaborate for student success.
