Students will get a solid foundation in the histories and cultures of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people. The core objectives are to provide students with knowledge of the histories and cultures of Indigenous peoples in Canada and globally; ensure that students develop skills to work with Indigenous knowledge systems and Indigenous methodologies, framed through Indigenous pedagogies and learning practices; introduce students to Indigenous worldviews, histories, geographies, law, politics, education, spirituality, and art, as well as concepts of colonization, decolonization and Indigenous-settler relations; engage students in land-based learning and to introduce students to local Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe communities.
