University of Regina Indigenous Connection

Building an inclusive future, together.

INDIGENOUS ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIC PLAN

This Land Acknowledgment is part of an ongoing conversation as we work toward reconciliation.

The University of Regina and its federated colleges are on Treaty 4 and Treaty 6 - the territories of the nêhiyawak, Anihšināpēk, Dakota, Lakota, and Nakoda peoples, and the homeland of the Michif/Métis nation.

We recognize that, as an institution founded by settlers, we benefit from being on this land. We are grateful for the privilege to learn, teach, and work here. We demonstrate our commitment to reconciliation by incorporating Indigenous knowledge and world views in our research, teaching, and studies to ensure that there are increased economic, social, and creative opportunities for current and future generations. It is our responsibility to strengthen relationships with Indigenous communities and build a more inclusive future.
