Building Capacity Through Shared Knowledge

Our workshops are rooted in reconciliation, engagement, and decolonization, offering your organization an opportunity to build meaningful relationships with Indigenous Peoples and communities. By embracing Indigenous knowledge and ways of knowing, we help you and your team create space for growth, understanding, and meaningful connections to work with the communities you serve in a good way.

Our Impact

“It provided us with practical, tangible and relevant ways to be better. It offered us new ways of thinking and helped us build depth in understanding how we can acknowledge, respect and adjust our communication practices in ways that are potentially meaningful and important.”

“On behalf of Operation Eyesight, we wanted to extend our sincerest appreciation for the incredible two days you spent with our staff, sharing your wisdom and grace from an authentic Indigenous perspective. Your teachings have left a profound impact on all of us.”

Michelle Lean, of pipikwan pêhtâkwan, facilitated a session for our members on Decolonizing Language, sharing key knowledge and insights that our members can use in their day-to-day work as municipal communicators. The session was thought-provoking and engaging, with information tailored directly to the audience inherent to our association. I would strongly recommend Michelle, and pipikwan pêhtâkwan, to all organizations seeking to learn more about communicating effectively with Indigenous communities.

It was such a thoughtfully presented webinar – really handled what is often a tough conversation/topic for settlers and aspiring allies with a lot of humility in a way that clearly demonstrates care.
