Through Lands-based and experiential educational practices, appropriate to the patterns of the late summer cycle, students will further develop their knowledge, motivation, and skills toward facilitating the transmission of an Indigenous environmental consciousness in the field of environmental science and practice. In this course, students will examine the role of language and worldviews in thinking and communicating about relationships to the Land. They will practice the skills necessary to cultivate relationships and enact reciprocity with Indigenous peoples and communities and within Indigenous Lands. The course includes a seven-day overnight field trip the last week before Labour Day. There is no cost to students for the field trip. Students must be registered in the course before the field trip commences.
