Reconciliation Conversations: Health & Wellness (Mon June 8/20)
The underlying issues for the health crises facing Indigenous communities are well documented: unsafe drinking water; lack of adequate housing and affordable food supplies; lack of adequate health care and emergency services; lower income levels and lack of access to education and economic opportunity.
Although the challenges can seem overwhelming, this unit will underscore the urgent need for action, and introduce some amazing people and organizations that are shaping a path forward.
On Monday June 8th at 1pm EST (that's 12 noon Winnipeg time) you're invited to join us on zoom or on Facebook Live for this awesome event featuring myself and Pam Palmater!
Background Info
Due to the pandemic, Experiences Canada postponed its national youth leadership forum on Reconciliation planned for this summer. Opportunities to apply to attend the event next June 2021 in Winnipeg remain open. Meanwhile we wanted to offer a series of online events and resources to maintain youth interest and awareness in issues of Reconciliation and inspire them to apply, as well as support secondary school educators who are looking for innovative ways to support their online learning plans
