Advisory

We call upon our global network of thought-leaders (Indigenous and non-Indigenous) across a multitude of sectors, industries and expertise, in order to advise us on our projects, partnerships and policy/advocacy work.

Our advisors include former Ambassadors, government leaders, founders of major corporations and industry game changers, lawyers, investors, high-level community leaders, Elders and Shaman.

We believe working together to look towards a better future, one that gives everyone a voice and a seat at the table.

This is an online Virtual Tipi Commemoration event for the Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, Two-Spirit and Gender Diverse. The day will be spent honouring these Life Givers through Support and Action for Ontario First Nations, Metis, and Inuit Families Survivors as well as Ontario Indigenous front-line workers. Guest Speakers include Monica Rutledge Indigenous Constable for Toronto Police Department, guests from BC MMIW Team: Alexandra O'daunaghey, Gladys Radek; Highway of Tears Commemoration project, Becky Big Canoe; followup on inquiry and actions across Canada and more! The goal of this event is to present Indigenous Voices in a way that will educate and engage our audience of 100 guests from Industry, government and community leaders so we can walk away with concrete ideas on how to move forward with reconciliation surrounding the final report of the MMIWG2S, as well as have a better understanding of the deliberate human and Indigenous rights violations and abuses in violence against Indigenous women in Canada.This conference aims to foster understanding, and allyship of non-indgenous peoples by creating a safe space for these important issues to be understood. This event is free to attend, but spots are limited so please register today! Tipi Commemoration to be unveiled May 5, 2022 in Honour of our Life Givers: Prayers for their return home @evergreen_brick_works
