In this webinar we are joined by Mary Laur, Director of the Indigenous Sharing and Learning Centre at Laurentian University, to talk about a unique course offered to students that uses land-based learning. In her presentation, Mary will define and address the significance of land base learning, how Indigenous students are reconnected to their culture and improving their wellness journey through living off the land. In addition, she will outline how the course was developed, the student experience of it, and the importance of addressing wellbeing wholistically. French closed captioning will be available.
