This resource has been developed collaboratively. We began with a series of workshops held in February through July 2021, conducted remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We have continued the work through online and in-person gatherings since that time. We are grateful to the team of Elders, Knowledge Keepers, educators, and others who have generously shared their expertise and insights. We are also grateful to our partner organizations and other collaborating organizations who have supported our work.
