Third-annual Indigenous Celebration Week honours Indigenous people on campus – The Gateway
Feb 16,2024
“It allows us to have a week of celebration and ceremony that we don’t really get to have a dedicated space and time for,” ISU president Sophie Martel says.
From January 30 to February 2, the University of Alberta Students’ Union (UASU) hosted the third-annual Indigenous Celebration Week (ICW).
Supporting Indigenous Language Revitalization, First Peoples’ House, Indigenous Students’ Union (ISU), and the Faculty of Native Studies all had representatives on the Advisory Committee. The Advisory Committee decided on the event’s programming.
In an interview with The Gateway, Sophie Martel, president of the ISU, spoke on the importance of having ICW at the U of A.
