The Reconciling Ways of Knowing Society facilitatea national conversations between Indigenous knowledge holders, scientists, academics, governments and the NGO and private sectors in order to form the basis of mutual understanding of the benefits of incorporating both Indigenous knowledge and western science into public and corporate decisions around land use, conservation, and sustainable economic development. We believe that reconciling Indigenous and western scientific ways of knowing is a critical part of the larger process of reconciliation between Indigenous and Settler peoples in Canada.The Reconciling Ways of Knowing Society, along with partners from the David Suzuki Foundation, the Turtle Lodge Centre for Indigenous Education and Wellness, and the Indigenous Leadership Initiative, had planned the Reconciling Ways of Knowing: Indigenous Knowledge and Science Forum for May 25-27, 2020 at the Turtle Lodge in Sagkeeng First Nation and in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Due to COVID-19, we have postponed the Forum until it is safe and appropriate to once again bring people together for this vital conversation. In the meantime, we are organizing a series of online talks to continue the dialogue.
