UBC’s Faculty of Education is recognizing 2012-2013 as the Year of Indigenous Education. Throughout the year, the Faculty will bring together students, community members, faculty, teachers, and leaders in the field to engage in dialogue, share insights, and critically explore issues related to indigenous education.
To mark the beginning of this yearlong initiative, the Faculty of Education is sponsoring an annual ‘Musqueam Excellence in Education Lecture’ in partnership with the Musqueam First Nation. For the inaugural lecture, panelists from the community will share their experiences and talk about opportunities for Indigenous education.
