Territorial Acknowledgment

The land our learning and research originates from has been stewarded and nourished by Indigenous peoples since time immemorial. This includes the ancestral territory of the Secwépemc, within the unceded lands of Secwepemcul’ecw, the unceded territory of the Hul’q’umi’num speaking people, on the Quw’utsun Nations, and the unceded territories of the qiqéyt (Qayqayt) First Nation and Coast Salish peoples. We are committed to learning from and walking alongside those who have always called these lands home.
