Reconciliation
In fall 2016, the Reconciliation Action Committee, (formally the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Response Working Group) was struck to develop a University-wide plan for reconciliatory action. This group includes faculty and staff from across several faculties and units. At the time that this group came together, several of the federated colleges and faculties, such as First Nations University of Canada and the Faculty of Education, had already developed formal responses to the TRC. The TRC Response Working Group strives to recognize these important contributions, as well as the conciliatory actions of many other units and individuals at the University, while also providing a platform to lead and support truth and reconciliation throughout our campuses and the many communities with which we collaborate.
