Indigenous Learning Series: Cultural Protocols: A Matter of Respect
A solid understanding and acknowledgment of cultural protocols is vital to establishing meaningful and lasting working relationships with Indigenous communities and groups—relationships based on mutual respect and trust as a matter of practice.
As a public servant, you may be asked to work with Indigenous communities, groups or associations for a wide variety of reasons, including, but not limited to the following:
- fulfilling the Duty to Consult
- soliciting advice and guidance
- learning from Elders and other members of the community
- discussing a project
- supporting the delivery of services
Join us to learn about these important topics and bring any colleagues who would benefit from this conversation. Registration is now open.
