Optional Workshop: Your Syilx Sisters – Communication Workshop (PDF)
Date: Wednesday, May 28, 2025
Time: 12-4pm
Location: TBC
Time: 12-4pm
Location: TBC
Description: q’sapi Training: Culturally Aware & Trauma Informed Training
Often a pre-requisite for working with Your syilx Sisters, this training acts a baseline for understanding how trauma-informed and culturally sensitive communications go to benefit authentic kinship-building practices with those you serve. The q’sapi training was developed from the law of story. ‘q’sapi,’ is how syilx people start their old stories, it means “a long time ago”. The intention of the workshop is to honour Indigenous voices and reduce the harm caused by perpetuating harmful narratives and misrepresentations. Often it’s because of the lack of understanding that comes from not knowing the protocols around meaningful communications, accurate and authentic imagery, or not understanding cultural terms of engagement. This workshop is built to engage communicators, storytellers, digital designers, frontline workers who work within communities or with Indigenous Peoples, media relations, government officials, government workers, or anyone interested in learning more about protocols and Indigenous teachings that support positive connections.
