invite you to attend a panel discussion
The ACDE Accord on Indigenous Education:What progress have we
made? What Challenges Lie Ahead?
co-sponsored by the Association of Canadian Deans of Education
and the
Canadian Society for the Study of Education
The panel emerges from conversations amongst teacher educators
who believe that cur-rent and future teachers have an important
responsibility in building the kinds of aware-ness, knowledge, and
sense of responsiveness that our society needs. Facing colonialism
and colonization with clear eyes will help Canadians to build
relationships of respect and accountability.
Five years ago, the Association of Canadian Deans of Education
(ACDE) ratified an Accord on Indigenous Education
(http://www.csse-scee.ca/acde/accords). At this historic junc-ture,
with the delivery of the final report of the Truth and
Reconciliation Commission Final Report to Parliament in June, 2015,
leaders in Indigenous education are meeting to share pedagogical
challenges and strategies at a panel discussion taking place at the
University of Ottawa. The panel is being held in conjunction with
the annual conference of the Cana-dian Society for the Study of
Education (CSSE).
The panel will take place on:
Saturday, May 30th 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm Lamoureux Hall 145

The panel will feature leading Indigenous scholars from across
Canada highlighting prog-ress made and challenges lying ahead
particularly in relation to the specific goals of the Accord. We
are pleased to announce that Truth and Reconciliation Commissioner
Marie Wilson has agreed to act as respondent and to convey the
recommendations for education from the TRCs final report.
We sincerely hope that you are able to join CASIE, CCPA, ACDE,
and CSSE at this import-ant gathering. If you have any questions,
or if we can facilitate your presence in any way, please do not
hesitate to contact us.
