As we continue to shape a more inclusive educational landscape, the integration of Indigenous knowledge into education plays a crucial role in developing a curriculum that honours the principals of reconciliation. It is important for us all to take some time to dedicate ourselves and encourage our friends/colleagues to better understand how we can achieve a culturally enhanced learning experience.

This is a unique opportunity to learn from a trailblazer in the Canadian justice system and a passionate advocate for Indigenous rights. The Honourable Marion Buller will share her insights on how incorporating Indigenous traditions and culture into curriculum enriches the learning experience for all students, fosters identity pride among Indigenous students, and promotes mutual respect and cultural understanding across the broader community. Whether you’re an educator, student, policymaker, or community member, this lecture will provide valuable perspectives and practical steps for enhancing education with Indigenous knowledge.

Learn with us at this year’s EDI Lecture Series, taking place in the TRU Mountain Room on Wednesday, October 30, 2024; doors will open at 5:30 and the lecture will begin at 6:00pm. Admission is free and open to all, but seating is limited to the first 200 people that register below. Be sure to secure your seats now before they are all gone!
