Abstract
The Ministry of Children and Family Development’s workshop Building Bridges through Understanding the Village supports Indigenous cultural understanding by having a positive impact on the way people see themselves engaging with Indigenous People. Many participants leave the workshop with more respect for Indigenous People and knowledge of Indigenous histories, and want to build on putting what they learn into practice.
