Indigenous Knowledge Public Lecture Series: Pamela Toulouse

Join us as we welcome accomplished Indigenous scholars to the University of Calgary to share Indigenous knowledge and research methodologies with our community. This year’s series theme is Welcome to ii’ taa’poh’to’p: Moving towards an Ethical Shared Space.

This interactive keynote will engage participants in a series of holistic knowledge sharing activities. The process of reconciliation is a journey where everyone has a role based in humility, humour, honesty and action. Dr. Toulouse will share her insights into truth and reconciliation and foster a renewed sense of relations at the end of this collaborative talk.
