The Anishinabek Nation is marking the 8th Treaties Recognition Week.
“Foundational knowledge on Treaties is an essential educational requirement for all people living in Ontario,” stated Grand Council Chief Reg Niganobe, in a news release.
“I encourage everyone to celebrate our Treaty partnerships by dedicating time this week to learn about your local treaties, territories, and the obligations we all carry within these agreements,” states Grand Council Chief Reg Niganobe.
In honour of the event, Anishinabek Nation has launched a new public education resource.
The wampum belt puzzle is a new interactive learning tool that comes with an informational piece introducing what a treaty is and links to videos that explore treaties more in-depth.
“Miigwech to Education Without Borders for helping with a financial contribution to help get this puzzle project off the ground,” Niganobe added.
“Having partners like Education Without Borders allows the Anishinabek Nation to ensure hands-on learning resources are made available for all learners not only in a classroom setting, but those who wish to continue with their learning journey at home.”
