“The Turtle Island Course aims to build meaningful, long-term relationships with Indigenous peoples’ history in Canada, connects these historic events to the current context, and debunks myths and stereotypes.
It concludes with participants identifying ways to act as effective and respectful allies to Indigenous peoples in their struggle for decolonization.”
Space is extremely limited for this popular course. If you’ve already attended this course, or if you haven’t attended a General Membership Meeting in the 12 months prior to the application deadline, you will not be eligible to apply.
