We are so excited to attend @HunterHubYYC 's Tech Fest 2023 on February 7, 2023 at @UCalgary! Wavemakers Co-Founder, @KristaSP, and Student Alumni will be representing Wavemakers at Booth #9. If you're attending Tech Fest, stop by our booth to learn more about our program!

Woohoo!! Ontario Tech students, we can't wait to have you join us in our virtual campus! 👋

Want to learn more? Here is a list of indigenous organizations that inspire our team. 🧡 @animikii @FN_TechCouncil @AncestorsFuture @IndigiFriends @Indspire @Moose_Hide @OneFeatherApp #TruthAndReconciliation #OrangeShirtDay #IndigenousVoices #participation #inclusion

Here are 150 acts of reconciliation - small everyday acts that every Canadian can do. ➡️ zcu.io/PsCQ

We encourage you also to take the time to reflect and learn more about Indigenous organizations, groups, and activists and how you can take steps to support decolonization and reconciliation.

The Calls to Action can be found here 👉🏾 zcu.io/ho54 And here is a link to the beyond 94 tracker - monitoring the progress made in implementing the calls to action. 👉🏾 zcu.io/eWWY

Wavemakers team members will be learning, listening and reflecting on the legacy of colonization and the actions we will take to support decolonization - beginning with a review of the 94 calls to action set out in the Commission of Canada: Truth and Reconciliation Report.

In keeping with this commitment to space-making, Wavemakers will refrain from all social media and other forms of communications tomorrow to hold space for Indigenous voices.

For non-indigenous people, #TruthAndReconciliationDay is a day to hold space for Indigenous voices, perspectives, histories and experiences. While tomorrow is a day dedicated to this space-making, the intention of learning, reflection, and decolonization must continue every day.

Tomorrow, September 30th is the #NationalDayForTruthAndReconciliation. A day to honour survivors, their families, and communities, and ensure that public commemoration of the history and legacy of residential schools remains a vital component of the reconciliation process.

Attention #Wavemakers and post-secondary students! @IBMCanada, one of Wavemakers valued partners, is hosting a virtual 'Meet and Greet' to learn about upcoming IBM internship opportunities held on August 25, 2022! Learn more and register here!👇🏻app.brazenconnect.com/a/ibm-…

While the Wavemakers program is held on a virtual platform, we acknowledge that the lands we are working, living, and participating from are the traditional lands of the Indigenous Peoples. 🧡 #IndigenousMonth

At #Wavemakers we celebrate and honour our Indigenous #students and #alumni and pride ourselves on being a program that puts #inclusivity and #diversity at the forefront of our recruitment process.
