    Indigenous Collections Symposium Promising Practices, Challenging Issues and Changing the System March 23-24, 2017 Six Nations Ohsweken & Brantford, ON Presenting Partners Indigenous Collections Symposium Introduction The Ontario Museum Association Indigenous Collections Symposium project, a series of webinars followed by a two-day symposium, is one that is timely and important for museums and Indigenous communities in Ontario both following on the recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and during Canada’s Sesquicentennial in 2017. The discussion about care and interpretation of Indigenous collections, particularly those held in trust by non- Indigenous organizations, is an important one that the OMA would like to facilitate among the more than 700 museum and heritage institutions in Ontario. We hope that this will be an ongoing conversation in which the OMA, our members, and Indigenous communities in Ontario will continue to engage going forward.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2017|18 Remembrance
    ANNUAL REPORT 2017|18 REMEMBRANCE LOTTIE KEYE February 11, 1938 - December 25, 2017 SNP Board Member from 2009-2017 SNP Indigenous Knowledge Guardian It is with deep sadness that Six Nations Polytechnic acknowledges the passing of our dear friend, mentor, board member, and Indigenous Knowledge Guardian, Lottie Keye. Lottie enjoyed several professional careers beginning as a nurse and working in the field for over 20 years. She then went to the Six Nations Day Care and finally returned to university to obtain her Ontario Teachers certificate. Lottie dedi- cated the rest of her professional career to language revitalization and preservation of the Cayuga language. Other notable accomplish- ments include co-authoring the first Cayuga Language dictionary and first written text of the Gaihwi:yo. She was the first Cayuga Language teacher of the Gawęní:yo immersion school system. Lottie also sat on many boards of directors over the years including Six Nations Poly- technic, Sweetgrass First Nations Language Council, and Six Nations Birthing Centre. She was also proud of her work with the Elders Soup meetings and with McMaster University. Lottie was dedicated to all her students and family whom she referred to as her children. She was most proud of the fact that she was able to hear many of her former students lead the ceremonies of the Longhouse. JAMES STYRES, SNP Indigenous Knowledge Guardian It is with deep sadness that Six Nations Polytechnic acknowledges the passing of our dear friend, and Indigenous Knowledge Guardian, James (Jim) Styres. Jim dedicated his life to learning and teaching our traditional ways and how to talk about them in our languages.

There are 38 Tribal Colleges and Universities in the United States and 26 Indigenous post-secondary institutions in Canada. Deploying a critical discourse analysis, the study examines IHEI websites to document Indigenous environmental sustainability education (ESE) program offerings. The comparative analysis of IHEI programming in each national context finds that 41 out of 62 IHEIs in Canada and the United States have Indigenous ESE programs. Findings also indicate that ESE programs are more prevalent among IHEIs in the United States than in Canada. Moreover, IHEIs in the United States also offered greater diversity of program types, from certificates to graduate studies. The findings highlight the importance of IHEI environmental and sustainability education program design for centering Received October 1, 2020; revised April 1, 2021; accepted June 17, 2021; electronically published August 2, 2021 91 Indigenous Knowledge in higher education through Indigenous-controlled institutions.
