🧡 National Day for Truth and Reconciliation 🧡
On September 30, we honour the survivors of residential schools, their families, and their communities, while remembering the children who never returned home. This day is a time for reflection, learning, and action as we continue the journey toward reconciliation.

Call to Action urges the corporate sector to ensure that Indigenous peoples have equitable access to jobs, training, and education opportunities in the corporate sector, and that their communities gain long-term sustainable benefits from economic development projects.

LearnSphere is committed to doing our part. We continue to focus actively on building partnerships, integrating Indigenous perspectives, and fostering opportunities for economic participation by Indigenous businesses in New Brunswick and beyond.

Reconciliation cannot be confined to a single day — it is an ongoing responsibility.

👉 We encourage our peers, partners, and networks to revisit the 94 Calls to Action (https://shorturl.at/olj9M) and reflect on how each of us can integrate reconciliation into our organizations and our daily lives.
