Mariam Wallet Aboubakrine joined ACGC for a keynote address on Indigenous Led Innovations at our 2022 Annual Conference under the theme Trailblazing New Paths to Inclusive Development

For millenaries, Indigenous Peoples around the world have been leading the way in social innovations that are based on deep knowledge and understanding of the land, environment, and how communities organize and work together. In this keynote, we have the privilege of hearing about Iindigenous led research as a transformative and innovative solution for the health and well-being of all. This discussion will focus on the space Indigenous women and gender diverse people, youth and leaders and their partners have carved out to innovate, the barriers they have worked to overcome and the incredible impact of their contributions for a more balanced and healthier communities.
