Critical Issues in Aboriginal Life and Thought

UBC Continuing Studies collaborates with other members of the UBC community to provide an ongoing series of free lectures, dialogues and debates on topics of interest to the general public – locally, nationally and internationally. The Lifelong Learning Series is held in the fall and winter terms at UBC Robson Square and is sponsored by the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre as part of its webcast collection.


Critical Issues in Aboriginal Life and Thought is a collaboration of the UBC First Nations Studies Program, the First Nations House of Learning, the Irving. K. Barber Learning Centre and UBC Continuing Studies.

 

In 2010/2011, UBC Robson Square hosted this series of special dialogues on critical issues in Aboriginal Life and Thought, which included:

Restoring the Balance: Aboriginal Women’s Issues in Canada by Beverley K. Jacobs

Lands, Treaties, and Development Strategies by Dr. Sheryl Lightfoot

Contemporary First Nations Art NOW – An illustrated talk with Shawn Hunt, Lori Blondeau and Dana Claxton

Education, Community Initiatives & Mainstream Institutions by Erin Freeland Ballantyne and Dr. Glen Coulthard
