Life Stages & Intersectionality: the affects & influence on the over-representation of indigenous people in the justice system

About this Event

Join us for two consecutive mornings to share in-focused discussions and wise practices with a panel of experts working in justice, legal & youth sectors by exploring intersections of colonial impacts on Indigenous realities at different life stages.

The first day will open with a Key Note, following with an interactive discussion with three panel experts working with Indigenous children & youth.

The second day will open with a Key Note, following with an interactive discussion with three panel experts working with Indigenous adults, & older generations.

The overall goal is to educate, deepen understanding and explore solutions to legal justice on social justice issues.

"Intersectionality is the study of how various forms of oppression, discrimination, domination and other social processes intersect and influence each other."
