Mindfulness and Indigenous Law

Join us for a day of community building, adult education and cultural celebration at the Mindfulness and Indigenous Law event. Together we will learn about indigenous ways of knowing and our interconnection with nature. Order-of-Canada recipient, Dual Law program co-founder, and Anishinaabe, Dr. John Borrows, will facilitate conversations on Indigenous Law and apply living principles outdoors with Dr. Rebecca Johnston, Hannah Askews, and Flossie Baker.

Simon Fraser University professor in linguistics and indigenous studies, Dr. Marianne Ignace, will define Secwepemc law and speak on the connection between Language and Land. In the afternoon, a team of guides will lead drumming and meditation on the unceded territory of the Secwépemc people. Wind down your day in community with traditional storytelling by a Secwépemc elder.

We are deeply honoured to welcome these speakers:
