Land and Workers Acknowledgments to Promote Justice on Higher Education Campuses [Abstract]

Aim/Purpose Land and labor acknowledgements are part of a slow growing movement to address historic injustices and legacies of racialization and colonization. Background Land and labor acknowledgements are important because they serve as a way to recognize and honor the historical presence and contributions of Indigenous peoples on the land, as well as the exploited labor of marginalized communities. Contribution This presentation will provide information about the practice of land and labor acknowledgments, share guidance and best practices, discuss how these efforts can be part of a significant institutional commitment to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI).
