The Elders and Knowledge Keepers in Schools Initiative supports students, educators, and families as they learn First Nations, Métis, and Inuit histories, cultures, traditional values, languages, contemporary lifestyles, and traditional knowledge systems across all learning environments through authentic engagement, one of the four policy directives articulated in Mamàhtawisiwin: The Wonder We Are Born With - An Indigenous Education Policy Framework.
