CEP Calgary x November: Indigenous Relations

How can we create shared value for Indigenous People and communities while developing and growing our economy?

Sustainable growth is inevitable to improve our economy, standards of living and social well-being of all Canadians. Making up over 5% of the Canadian population with unique ways of knowing, spiritual ties to the land and their vested interests, Indigenous Peoples have a large role to play in economic and sustainable development. Given Canada’s history of oppressive attempts at assimilation and considering Canada’s current relationship and context with Indigenous Peoples, what is the best way forward? Join us on November 14th with experts from the Indigenous Relations field to explore this topic.
