A compassionate approach to Indigenous Justice in Canada.
The aim of this course is to provide a compassionate approach to Indigenous Justice in Canada. Based on chapters from the Durvile True Cases books, this course contains stories by Justice John Vertes, Jonathan Rudin, Senator Kim Pate, Jennifer Briscoe, Catherine Dunn, and Doug Heckbert. As a collective, their essays reflect on ways to include Indigenous values within the justice system; and to find a way forward to decrease the rate of victimization, crime and incarceration among Indigenous people.
This program contains 3 hours and 30 minutes of EDI professionalism content.
