Cultural Perspectives Series – Understanding History

This workshop is a part of the Indigenous Perspective Workshop Series:

In this three-hour workshop, participants learn an overview of colonization history in Canada from first contact to the social impact of residential schools on the lives of Indigenous peoples.

In order to create a space that fosters conversation, interaction and reflection we will be limiting the workshop to 35 participants. 

Please note these sessions will not be recorded. If you register and then are unable to attend, please let us know so that we can open up space for other participants. We will be following our Cancellation Policy.

Once you register for a workshop, BCNPHA will share your email and name with IPS who will then contact you with a session link and learning resources. 

What you will learn:

  • Develop clear understanding of residential school history
  • Understand the continued impacts of colonization when working with Indigenous children, youth, and families
  • Understand the inter-generational impacts from the loss of traditional culture experienced by Indigenous peoples
  • Identify social location, decolonization, and the role of the Indigenous ally
