Pîkiskwêtân, the Indigenous Learning Series, is a continuous series of decolonizing and anti-racist Indigenous awareness training and professional development workshops. The series is open to Concordia staff, faculty and students.
This workshop introduces participants to Concordia’s territorial acknowledgment and explains the importance of recognizing the land which Concordia is built on. The wording of the Acknowledgment is explained and participants are provided with the necessary knowledge and skills to understand when an Acknowledgment is appropriate and needed. Participants will also learn how to deliver a Territorial Acknowledgement that is honest, respectful and meaningful.
