As part of National Indigenous History Month in June and National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21, the Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association Indigenous tourism team is hosting a 3-hour virtual session to share the history of Indigenous Peoples of Canada with anyone interested to learn.

Attendees will learn about the rich and diverse cultures, languages, and histories of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities. Through cultural understanding, people and organisations will be better equipped to address and dismantle systemic barriers that exist for Indigenous peoples.

Learning to understand Indigenous cultures, histories, and languages can open the door to enriching partnerships, relationships, and respectful engagement.

It is also an opportunity to observe, celebrate, and acknowledge the sacrifices, strength, accomplishments, and futures of the Indigenous Peoples in Canada.
