Vibrant Communities Speaker Series - Reconciliation

Starts: Monday, June 06

Ends: Monday, June 06

Part of having complete, vibrant communities, is ensuring all people are respected and honoured for their contributions. This is something Canada falls short of in many ways, but perhaps the most pressing is in the historical (and many might argue, current) treatment of its Indigenous population. Reconciliation is necessary to address our shared history in support of a vibrant future for everyone that lives here. But what does reconciliation mean? How can we reconcile? Reconciliation in Solidarity Edmonton (or RISE) is a group of citizens in the Edmonton region who are committed to supporting reconciliation in words and actions. They have grown out of the Calls to Action of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and are intent on helping to maintain momentum in this key area. We are lucky to have four members of RISE to hold a panel discussion on reconciliation in Edmonton.
