REGISTRATION NOW OPEN: 2026 Summer Institute for Literacy in Indigenous Content
by Dean Environment 02 Mar '26

02 Mar '26

***Shared on behalf of Cary Miller, Indigenous Studies*** Greetings campus community, I am pleased to announce that registration is now open for the 2026 Summer Institute for Literacy in Indigenous Content. This year marks the 7th annual offering of the program, which has supported more than 500 participants in successfully completing the training. The Institute will run Tuesday mornings from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., May 12 to July 28. Research demonstrates that learning of this nature is most effective when delivered over an extended period rather than as a one-time event. With this in mind, we encourage participants to attend as many sessions as possible. Participants that successfully complete the program will receive a certificate of completion recognizing their professional development. Most sessions will be held via Zoom and will be recorded for those who may need to catch up. However, two sessions will be held in person and will not be recorded. These in‑person commitments include: * May 12 at Migizi Agamik, Fort Garry Campus * A full day in community at Brokenhead Reserve (transportation provided to and from the Fort Garry Campus; exact date to be confirmed) The Zoom link will be available on the UMLearn course site. There is no cost to participate. The purpose of the Summer Institute is to support the implementation of TRC Call to Action #57, which calls upon public servants to receive education on the history of Indigenous peoples, including residential schools, Treaties, Indigenous rights, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Indigenous law, and Indigenous–Crown relations. The training also incorporates skills‑based learning in intercultural competency, conflict resolution, human rights, and anti‑racism. In addition, the Institute is designed to assist faculty in integrating Indigenous content into their courses—an expectation outlined in the University of Manitoba’s current strategic plan. Through discussion and practical guidance, participants will explore topics such as selecting course materials, developing syllabi, and facilitating conversations about race in the classroom. We encourage Deans and supervisors to recognize participation in this program as part of employees’ professional development. The Summer Institute is open to both faculty and staff.Registration is now open. Due to planned field trips and in‑person components, enrollment will be capped at 80 participants, so we encourage you to register early. Institute on Literacy in Indigenous Content for UM Faculty and Staff – Fill out form<https://forms.office.com/r/rFtZph88C5> Further information can be found below: https://umtoday.ca/stories/awareness-action You will receive an email confirming your enrollment as well as receive access to the UMLearn site for the course. Dainielle Danielle Lang Executive Assistant to the Vice-President (Indigenous) (HR and Events) and Associate Vice-President (Indigenous) Research and Academic 202 Administration Building 66 Chancellors Circle, Wpg. MB. R3T 2N2 (431) 334-6024 www.umanitoba.ca/indigenous<http://www.umanitoba.ca/indigenous> The University of Manitoba campuses and research spaces are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Dene and Inuit, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. UM recognizes that the Treaties signed on these lands are a lifelong, enduring relationship, and we are dedicated to upholding their spirit and intent. We acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past and the present. With this understanding, we commit to supporting Indigenous excellence through active Reconciliation, meaningful change, and the creation of an environment where everyone can thrive. Our collaboration with Indigenous communities is grounded in respect and reciprocity and this guides how we move forward as an institution. [cid:image001.png@01DCAA35.D98653C0]

The Fellowship recognizes senior scholars who demonstrate exceptional creativity, leadership, and commitment in the humanities and social sciences.
