RDP hosting annual Indigenous Perspectives Conference

“The Indigenous Perspectives Conference plays an important role in the academic, personal and professional journey of many people by growing their knowledge and understanding of Indigenous experiences and perspectives,” says Annika Sudlow, Vice President of RDP Education Undergraduate Society and Advisor of the Indigenous Perspectives Conference.

“Through the generosity of our sponsors – Central Alberta Regional Consortium, Indigenous Student Services, and support through the Cultural Activities Trust Fund provided by the RDP Students’ Association – we are able to offer this conference at no cost, which reduces barriers to participate.”

According to organizers:

While individuals from all backgrounds and careers are welcome to attend the conference, there are components of the sessions that link to K-12 curriculum, providing additional benefits for aspiring teachers, Bachelor of Education learners and current educators. At the Indigenous Games and Cross-Curricular Connections session, participants will learn about ways to integrate the content into subjects like math, social studies and physical education.
