Ziibiing Land-based Learning Retreat

Join members of the UofT’s Community of Practice on Sustainability Teaching for an afternoon retreat to experience and discuss Land-based approaches to teaching and learning. A walking tour of Ziibiing, the new Land-based Installation in front of Hart House, will be led by Andrea Johns & John Croutch of UofT's Office of Indigenous Initiatives. This tour will deepen our understanding of Indigenous teachings, history, and connections to the land, as well as provide insights into Indigenous cosmologies, traditional stories, native plants, and cultural and spiritual connections to the natural world. This will be followed by time for discussion and a sharing of teaching practices that support Land-based learning at UofT. Refreshments will be provided. Registration in advance is required.
