🧡 Friday, Sept. 30th is the National Day for Truth & Reconciliation in Canada - a time to recognize the legacy of the Canadian Indian residential school system. It is also an occasion to learn more about Indigenous history, culture, stories and world views.

As we at Global Village navigate our own paths to truth and reconciliation, we take this day off from regular activities so that staff, students and host families have the opportunity to participate in authentic community events hosted by local indigenous groups; to engage in quiet reflection; and to deepen our learning.

There are five events you can attend in the Victoria area, including Xe Xe Smun’ Eem–Victoria Orange Shirt Day: Every Child Matters Ceremony developed by residential school survivor Eddy Charlie (pictured here).
