Thompson Rivers University, the Tulo Centre of Indigenous Economics (Tulo Centre), and the University of Canterbury have signed a Memorandum of Understanding focused on Indigenous-led programming. The MOU signed by all three institutions outlines a pathway for cooperation and collaboration on research; support; and building capacity for Indigenous public administration, governance, leadership, and economic development. “We are honoured to be a partner in supporting Indigenous students who will use their education to go forward and create meaningful change,” said TRU President Brett Fairbairn. “By signing this MOU, TRU strengthens and reinforces its commitment to serving Indigenous students and the communities of the region.” TRU and Tulo Centre also strengthened their existing relationship by renewing an MOU.
