Description
Indigenous youths are powerful catalysts for community transformation. They bring their voices and bold visions to reconciliation efforts across Canada.
This inspiring event features a panel of dynamic Indigenous youth leaders who are leading social and cultural change in their own communities and beyond. By sharing their lived experiences and unique journeys as leaders, they will show how young people are building a future rooted in identity, strength and innovation.
Participants will gain valuable insights into the diverse realities, achievements and aspirations of Indigenous youth, and learn how public servants can actively champion inclusive and forward-looking initiatives in support of these aspirations.
