OTTAWA — The importance of Institutional Humility and 41 specific Calls to Action to guide reconciliation, Indigenous learning efforts and positive long-term change were highlighted in Carleton University’s recently released Kinàmàgawin (learning together), the final report published by the Carleton University Strategic Indigenous Initiatives Committee (CUSIIC).
“One of the things we talk about in the report is this concept of Institutional Humility,” says Benny Michaud, assistant director of the Department of Equity and Inclusive Communities and co-chair of the CUSIIC. “In order to begin any type of reconciliation work within a post-secondary institution, you have to recognize the part that educational institutions in Canada have played historically in oppressing our people and in hurting our communities, and until you can acknowledge that, you can’t begin to do things differently.”
The 41 Calls to Action, which are aimed at making Carleton a safer and more welcoming space for current and future Indigenous students and faculty members, span seven themes: community engagement; Indigenous student support; student experience; ways of teaching and learning; culture, systems and structure; research and innovation; and metrics.
