About the Course

Indigenous Canada is a 12-module course from the Faculty of Native Studies (University of Alberta). Through interdisciplinary lenses, this course invites you to build foundational knowledge about Indigenous histories and gain a deeper understanding of contemporary realities at global, national, and local levels. You will develop practical skills to: · Critically analyze colonial and Indigenous histories · Interpret treaties, land claims, and legal frameworks · Understand Indigenous political movements and resurgence · Contextualize current events, policy debates, and social movements · Recognize Indigenous approaches to land, environment, and knowledge · Engage thoughtfully with Indigenous worldviews and contemporary life, art, and creative expression Indigenous Canada encourages thoughtful reflection on Indigenous resilience and the responsibilities of living in shared spaces today. By the end of the course, you will be able to apply your knowledge and skills to academic, professional, and civic contexts, fostering more informed, respectful, and responsible engagement with Indigenous peoples and communities. You will leave with a greater appreciation for present-day Canada and how Indigenous perspectives can inform more just and sustainable relationships....
