The Re:Conciliation Project was created to help companies take steps towards reconciliation so that they may actively address Call to Action #92 of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and help understand their own impact on advancing reconciliation and honouring Indigenous Peoples.

The project also strives to bring overall awareness, knowledge, and provide commercial/economic opportunities such as highlighting Indigenous small businesses or changemakers.

Project

Through pilots Corporate Canada is able to showcase Indigenous changemakers, businesses and initiatives within their offices. Those working in or visiting the space are able to walk by and scan QR codes to learn more, shop, and connect.

The Re:Conciliation Project aims to enable Corporate Canada on their Call To Action #92 efforts, while ensuring responsible and sustainable reconciliation and a consistent approach to honour Indigenous culture in modern power dynamics. The project follows the Pathway of Creation and seeks to showcase and amplify rather than create new.

We have an open call for Indigenous People or initiatives to be showcased on the pilot posters such as small businesses, makers, artists, authors, musicians, podcasters, or changemakers.

We are growing our knowledge and relationships, please consider this a living pilot page. If you would like to host the Re:Conciliation Project at your organization, or if you would like to be featured please let us know.
