UBC Relationship with the Host Nation Campus Walk

The Okanagan Nation’s history with UBC Okanagan (UBCO) dates back to the inception of this campus in 2005. Join Indigenous Programs and Services (IPS) on an interactive journey through the evolving relationship with UBC and the unique programming offered at UBCO.

We will begin in FIP 140 with an opportunity to connect and for a short presentation to provide contextual information about the relationship between the Syilx Okanagan Nation and UBCO. During the walk, we will visit several locations on campus that hold historical significance connected to the relationship our campus holds with the Okanagan Nation. The entire session will take approximately 2 hours, and the walk portion will be 35 to 45 minutes.

Please remember to dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes as we will be walking across campus.

Hosted by: Naim Cardinal, Educational Facilitator, IPS.
