An Introduction to Land Acknowledgements
Why, When, and How to Write One For your Business (Workshop Recording)
Presented by Rise Consulting: riseconsultingltd.ca (October 14, 2021)
Reconciliation is the coming together of our systems, institutions, organizations, and society in relationship with, and in creating a more equitable and inclusive society for Indigenous peoples. We listen, learn, reflect and then act.
As we identify the intersection between reconciliation and inclusive workplaces, the opportunity exists for organizations to proactively participate in, support, and partner on economic development activities with Indigenous communities and ventures. An important step in reconciliation is land acknowledgments.
Together we will discuss what a land acknowledgment is, the importance of land acknowledgments, and spend time in the workshop crafting a land acknowledgment that is meaningful to you.
