Canada’s dark past of residential schools and the ongoing impact on survivors, friends, family and loved ones can only begin to be resolved by all members of society coming together and creating a joint vision of reconciliation. This webinar will focus on the role of higher education in bridging this divide in our society. It will discuss the responses from higher education institutions to the Calls to Action and include a panel of university leaders to discuss the following questions:

• How have our academic institution responded to the Calls to Action from the TRC?
• What has been achieved to date?
• What are our action plans going forward and what barriers need to be overcome in order to make more progress?
