Hosted by: COMPASS

Led by Gwen Bridge and James Rattling Leaf of Gwen Bridge Consulting in partnership with COMPASS’s Sarah Sunu, this interactive two-day workshop will introduce you to the practice of Ethical Space, a powerful conceptual framework designed to support the reconciliation of Indigenous and western worldviews in order to co-create a just and vibrant future. This is a unique opportunity to learn from two leaders in this space; there is nothing else quite like this in North America.

In this workshop you will:

  • Learn about tools and resources to develop your plan for incorporating Ethical Space into your work with Indigenous Peoples
  • Build your foundation of core knowledge about Indigenous issues in Canada and the United States, including the impacts of historical and contemporary policies on Indigenous land management
  • Understand preparatory steps for ensuring a smooth engagement process with Indigenous communities
  • Explore traditional ecological management and research in an Indigenous cultural context
  • Meet others who are active in Indigenous engagement
