About this event
Honouring Indigenous Ancestry: Meaningful Land Acknowledgements in Corporate Practice
Many businesses struggle to find the right words to acknowledge the Indigenous lands they operate on.
Join us for a session led by Johnathon Strebly, former Chief of Staff at Skwxwú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation), to learn how to incorporate cultural respect into your organizational practices through authentic land acknowledgements.
We are honoured to be joined by Xwechtaal Dennis Joseph, Squamish Nation Elder, who will share a traditional blessing song from his people.
You’ll learn how to:
- Respectfully recognize the Indigenous Peoples whose land we work on,
- Incorporate cultural respect into your organization’s practices, and
- Craft a meaningful and authentic land acknowledgement for your business.
Seats are limited!
Ready to make a difference? Deepen your understanding of land acknowledgements and their significance in honouring Indigenous ancestry and learn practical strategies to incorporate them into your workplace. Register today to save your spot for this exclusive event!
All proceeds from this event will be donated to Indspire, an Indigenous charity that invests in the education of First Nations, Inuit and Métis people across Canada.
