The Faculty of Education strives to create a welcoming community for our Indigenous students, faculty, and staff. Our Elder-in-Residence, Deb St. Amant, provides support to our students in the WISE, ITEP, and ITEP Community-Based programs. Our Faculty works closely with Imagine a Canada, an initiative of the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR), to support Ontario students, teachers, schools, and boards with Imagine a Canada projects, and we offer ongoing workshops on Indigenous knowledge for our community.
