This conference is in celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Indigenous Studies at Trent University and the twentieth anniversary of the Indigenous Studies PhD program at Trent and a showcase for the work of the Urban Aboriginal Knowledge Network. It’s a time of reflection upon where we’ve been, where we are and where we’re going as Indigenous peoples.
