Queen鈥檚 University is partnering with Kenjgewin Teg Indigenous Educational Institute to jointly develop and offer three new courses in Indigenous studies in January 2022.
Kenjgewin Teg is an Indigenous-led educational institute at M'Chigeeng First Nation, on Mnidoo Mnising (Manitoulin Island). Queen鈥檚 has a long history of partnership with Kenjgewin Teg through the university鈥檚 community-based Indigenous Teacher Education program.
The new courses will be offered online through Queen鈥檚 Faculty of Arts and Science from January to April 2022 as part of the one-term pilot agreement.
