Reflecting on truth and reconciliation efforts – and where we go next

In recognition of the 10-year anniversary of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s final report, the Orange Shirt Day/National Indigenous Peoples Day planning circle is launching a community-wide call to action.

The First 10/Next 10: TRC Poster Series is an endeavour to create accountability to Indigenous peoples and to the TRC’s calls to action. It is an opportunity for departments, faculties, student groups and administrative units to reflect on the truth-telling and reconciliation work already done – and commit to what comes next – through digital posters that document initiatives implemented in response to the  (PDF file) 94 Calls to Action (external link) .

Thank you to all who submitted a poster and participated in the events.
