Description
The Final Report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, titled Reclaiming Power and Place, reveals that persistent, deliberate violation of human and Indigenous rights are the root cause of Canada's staggering rates of violence against Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA people. The report calls for transformative legal and social changes to resolve the crisis that has devastated Indigenous communities across the country.
To commemorate the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, the Canada School of Public Service is welcoming National Inquiry commissioner and recognized Indigenous leader Michèle Audette to discuss her personal journey and to help you understand the essence of the Final Report's 231 individual Calls for Justice, and how you can contribute to change.
