On April 17, 2026, the Office of the Vice-Provost, Indigenous Engagement (OVPIE) welcomed the campus community to the University of Saskatchewan’s (USask) 10th ohpahotân | oohpaahotaan symposium.
Over the past five years these bi-annual symposiums have centered on understanding, uplifting, and implementing ohpahotân | oohpaahotaan, the Indigenous Strategy which was gifted to USask in 2021.
“We started the symposiums in an effort to help the broader scope of campus understand the meaning of the gift and our responsibility in lifting it,” said Dr. Angela Jaime (PhD) vice-provost Indigenous engagement.
These consistently popular, sold-out gatherings continue to educate people and bring them together in a networking environment.
