Indigenous Studies — certificate University of the Fraser Valley

Program Description

The Indigenous Studies certificate program is designed to assist educators and others in meeting some of the Calls to Action issued by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) by teaching and providing the knowledge of “how to” indigenize in ways that promote respect and empowerment for Indigenous peoples and Indigenous ways of knowing. The program seeks to bring awareness to past and present colonial harms, strengthen Indigenous/Settler relationships, and teach proper protocol in relation to learning from and with Indigenous peoples while incorporating Indigenous ways of knowing.
