      It's Georgian\u2019s goal to introduce Indigenous content into all aspects of the college. The Indigenous Studies team at Georgian, alongside the advice of an Elder, carefully worded the land acknowledgment to be inclusive of all Indigenous people, as well as to pay respect to the people who live on this territory.<\/p>\n\n
      There's a rich Indigenous history in this area, and it's important to understand how Indigenous people are connected to the land as a part of our identities.<\/p>\n\n
      For Indigenous people, the land is our mother, and we are nurtured and sustained by her gifts and teachings. Indigenous people view the land as being central to the health and well-being of our nations, it teaches us humility, respect, gratitude, and a connection to our ancestors.<\/p>\n\n
      Land is an integral component in the identities of Indigenous people. There's a common misconception that land acknowledgments are a way for Indigenous people to claim ownership of the land, however, it's important for Indigenous people to recognize they belong to the land and are made of the land.<\/p>\n\n
      Watch this video to hear more about our land acknowledgement.<\/p>\n"},"library":"H5P.Text 1.1","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Untitled Text"},"subContentId":"ed861221-ad6f-42e2-873d-c458d930e96d"}],"header":"Land Acknowledgement"},{"position":{"x":90,"y":52.54901960784314},"alwaysFullscreen":false,"content":[{"params":{"text":"
