A joint event between the Centre for Indigenous Knowledges and Languages and the Dahdaleh Institute for Global Health Research will celebrate International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples (Aug. 9) with a special event on Aug. 3.

Running from 2:30 to 4 p.m., Indigenous Perspectives on Planetary Healing celebrates Indigenous knowledge and creates space for sharing perspectives on striving toward human and environmental well-being.

The discussion will focus on healing as it relates to environmental injustice, climate change, and/or biodiversity loss that sparks creativity, reciprocity, and knowledge-sharing among Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers and practitioners (people working on the ground).

• Nicole Redvers, assistant professor, Indigenous health, family and community medicine, University of North Dakota
