*“The Indigenous Action Group (IAG) is an alliance made up primarily of scholars, Elders, Knowledge Keepers, artisans, teachers, activists, and researchers from the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation (MCFN) with non-Indigenous and Indigenous faculty and staff from the University of Toronto campuses. The IAG’s goal is to engage students, staff, and faculty in truth, through knowledge of Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg Nations’ history and the importance of Treaties as living documents, and reconciliation, through an acceptance of local Indigenous knowledge systems across the curriculum. This directive means that educational priorities are not only community-engaged, but also community-led. Partnerships between educational institutions and local Indigenous communities go beyond broader Indigenous Studies programs because they promote a place-based educational model that forms the foundation for equity, reciprocity, and respectful relationships.”
