Healing the Wound with the Weapon

Healing the Wound with the Weapon: Post-Secondary Education and Reconciliation

Kevin Lamoureux, University of Winnipeg

This session will explore the role of institutions, such as universities, in reconciliation. We are not responsible for having created the problems, but we have all inherited the wreckage of broken relationships. We have also inherited tools and opportunities to create change. We will discuss practical ways that we can work together in post-secondary to move forward in a good way.

Kevin Lamoureux is a faculty member at the University of Winnipeg and a well-known public speaker. He has served as an Associate Vice-President for the University of Winnipeg, education lead for the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation, and as scholar in residence for several school divisions. He has appeared on television, in documentaries, in print and in the media. He is committed to reconciliation and contributing to an even better Canada for all children to grow up in.

This event is free and open to all.  Please RSVP to ctl@uwo.ca
