Sharing Indigenous Voices: From Thoughts to Being
Indigenous education includes cultures, traditions, and histories in a reciprocal process that engages students, staff, parents, and community partners to collaborate for student success. It is important that all voices are heard and valued. Closing the gap in Indigenous education is critical for the future of Canada. The National Gathering is a place where educators and partners can share their voices and work together to improve the educational outcomes of K- 12 Indigenous students.
Celebrating and exploring our rich Indigenous cultures, traditions, and histories; this conference engages educators, and community partners to collaborate for student success. A step towards truth and reconciliation, this conference presents workshops within four categories: knowing, feeling, doing, being.
