Through reflecting on your experiences and knowledge of colonial history and Indigenous issues, we will work through activities based on decolonization, Indigenization, and reconciliation reflective practices. Our journey continues on to creating a culturally safe learning environment and Indigenizing through reconciling Indigenous worldviews, ways of knowing and being.
