Truth and Right Relations Workshop 

8:30am- 12:30 pm
Max Bell Building, Room 252

This workshop is designed for participants to better understand the truth of Canada’s shared history with Indigenous peoples and explore how to move towards right relations. This includes fostering a dialogue between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians, and asking each of us to enter into a respectful relationship with one another as we work toward shared purposes.
Through Purposeful Travel we can engage in experiences which uplift the spirit and story of place, renew our relations, and energize pathways of truth and reconciliation.  

Indigenous Tourism Panel Discussion 

1:45-4:30pm
Max Bell Auditorium 

Interest in indigenous tourism is growing rapidly in Canada and abroad. How much do you know about Indigenous tourism? 
Learn more about what is and what is not indigenous tourism, what role it occupies in indigenous culture and, what constitutes commodification. Discover how you can support indigenous tourism. 
Join us for a panel discussion with industry experts and practitioners who will share their expertise and experience in this growing field.
