HEC Montréal announced the Circle of Alliance with First Peoples this week, a new initiative designed to strengthen teaching, research, and knowledge sharing related to Indigenous realities. The initiative builds on work performed in partnership with First Peoples in First Nations Executive Education, which launched in 2021. HEC Montréal Full Professor Marine Agogué, the co-leader of the initiative, explained that the circle was inspired by a “Two-Eyed Seeing” approach that combines Indigenous knowledge and Western science. “The Circle is intended to serve as a knowledge-sharing hub for the entire student body, staff, faculty, and beyond,” said Agogué.
