The two-hour event will be led entirely by Saugeen Ojibway Nation speakers and moderator(s), offering an authentic and engaging opportunity to hear directly from Indigenous voices. 

 

NishTalks celebrates the strength, resilience, and cultural practices of the Indigenous community, with a focus on present-day knowledge, creativity, leadership, and lived experience.
