Join us on May 28, 2026 for the Working in Good Ways Symposium – a celebration of the five-year anniversary of the launch of Working in Good Ways, an Indigenous-informed framework and resources for working with Indigenous and other systemically marginalized communities.
The WIGW Symposium offers you an opportunity to explore the Working in Good Ways framework and related resources, and to learn how the UM community has applied them to transform community-engaged research, teaching, advocacy and more.
The symposium will:
- Highlight the impact of Working in Good Ways
- Introduce the new Researching in Good Ways framework
- Showcase practical applications of Working in Good Ways across UM
- Demonstrate how you can use these approaches in your own community engagement, decolonization and reconciliation work.
This invitation is sent on behalf of the Working in Good Ways Project Team, which includes Nicki Ferland (Director of Land Based Education and Indigenous Curriculum, OVPI), Anny Chen (Lead, Community Engaged Learning), and Gera Villagrán (Faculty Specialist: Experiential Learning, The Centre).
