We offer Workshops to Help Deepen Our Understanding and Engagement
The LIRR Leadership Circle offers a number of workshops to help us engage important issues on the path of reconciliation and healing, in order to better understand our sisters and brothers in the Indigenous Communities with whom we share this land. Two of these workshops are currently available in French and English and soon the rest of these workshops will be available in both languages.
They include:
-The Kairos Blanket Exercise (available in French & English)
-Settler Mentality (available in English)
-Land Acknowledgement, Parts 1 & 2 (available in French & English)
-Indian Act (available in English)
-Doctrine of Discovery (available in English)
