Reflecting on Indigenous Land Acknowledgements (Staff & Faculty Training)
This is a virtual session. Instructions will be provided closer to the day of class. Many Canadian Institutions including the University of Toronto do land acknowledgements before meetings, before convocations and at seminars and conferences, but why do we do them; what is their purpose and are they an effective tool of reconciliation and decolonization.
