Schools share courses devoted to culture, language, truth and reconciliation

Several schools have shared courses and programs dedicated to Indigenous culture, languages, and truth and reconciliation. First Nations University partnered with RBC and the RBC Foundation to offer FNU’s self-paced online Advancing Re(al)conciliation program for free to all Canadians. MacEwan University has launched a minor in Indigegogy—reportedly the first such minor in Canada—which covers topics such as Indigeneity in Canada, residential schools, and First Peoples and the arts. MacEwan President Dr Annette Trimbee explained that the program differs from traditional Indigenous studies programs due to its alignment with reconciliation principles.
