Call to Action #57

57. We call upon federal, provincial, territorial, and municipal governments to provide education to public servants on the history of Aboriginal peoples, including the history and legacy of residential schools, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Treaties and Aboriginal rights, Indigenous law, and Aboriginal–Crown relations. This will require skills- based training in intercultural competency, conflict resolution, human rights, and anti-racism.

“Education should be providing to public servants regarding the misinformation of treatment and the history of Aboriginal Peoples. Public servant workers need to have intercultural competency, conflict resolution, human rights, and anti-racism skills. Integration of aboriginal people within the public servants would also help with the integration of understanding aboriginal rights and laws within the country”
Carolyn Bennett – Minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs
