Master Series - Understanding Our Role In Truth and Reconciliation

2021 has opened our eyes to the atrocities that Indigenous peoples in Canada have endured over the last century. Although on the road to Truth and Reconciliation, Canada’s journey has just begun. At such a pivotal time in our nation’s history, we all must understand how to take meaningful steps towards a fair future for all.

In this Master Series event hear from a panel of Indigenous leaders on how our industry can follow the Truth & Reconciliation Commission of Canada’s Calls to Action through the delivery of our events. Through open dialogue, this event will help us to take a positive step towards reconciliation by understanding and respecting the interests of Indigenous peoples on whose lands we meet.
