INFO:

The FHS “Indigenisation and Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (I-EDI) Student Learning Circle” is a facilitated learning space where participants collectively learn, reflect, and share knowledge on topics related to I-EDI. The Nov 2024 session's theme will be focused on Decolonization.

We will gather in-person in the FHS Student Commons on November 6, 2024 from 5:30-7PM to discuss and engage with thematic activities, questions, prompts, and reflections, largely guided by the Decolonize First workbook by Ta7talíya Nahanee. Participating in the circle is free and open for any FHS undergraduate or graduate student to join. All levels of knowledge and experience on I-EDI are welcome (we espeiclaly encourage those who are new to I-EDI to come and check it out)!

The Learning Circle will be co-facilitated by FHS undergraduate students Christina Lam and Sarah Raufi.
Please email cla448@sfu.ca if you have questions or want to know more about the Learning Circle before registering.

Registration is required as space is limited! We will be providing free pizza and snacks for registered attendees at the end of the session.
