Forum on Principles and Practices of Authentic Engagement with Indigenous Communities

Make this part of your police service's reconciliation journey. 

Increasingly, public safety agencies across the country are striving to educate staff on pivotal concepts such as cultural humility, anti-racism, cultural safety, and trauma-informed practice.

The Canadian Police Knowledge Network (CPKN) and the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police (CACP) are working in collaboration with the Vancouver Police Department to host a two-day forum, December 4 - 6, 2023, on Principles and Practices of Authentic Engagement with Indigenous Communities.

This event will allow delegates to explore topics such as:

• consultation practices;
• equitable access to resources;
• the Indigenization of public safety spaces and processes; and
• practices that foster authentic and positive engagement with Canada's First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities.
