Rebirthed Teachings: Box & Circle Teaching

The teachings and the model of the Box and the Circle have been used globally by professionals seeking to create ways to address colonization and its continuing harmful interaction with Indigenous Nations and cultures.

Participants are invited to learn cultural knowledge, the impacts of colonization on the daily lives of Indigenous peoples, and ways to support critical work to advance anti oppressive, inclusive practice. The workshop explores the effects of Residential Schools and Canada’s Policy of Assimilation and how we can work together to impact meaningful change." source: http://www.4windswellness.ca
