Our Four Stage Journey Towards Development

In 2016, the University of Calgary embarked on a journey towards the development of an Indigenous Strategy. In honour of both Indigenous and Western practices, we engaged in a parallel four stage journey framework. This approach included comprehensive conversations and consultations across the campus and with communities. Our strategy is grounded by the wisdom of Indigenous knowledge keepers and informed by community.
