APPROACH TO SPORT

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) has five calls to action relating to sport and recreation:

#87 Tell stories of Indigenous athletes.

#88 Ensure long-term Indigenous athlete development and growth.

#89 Change the Physical Activity and Sport Act to reduce barriers and increase Indigenous sport participation.

#90 Ensure sport policies, programs and initiatives are inclusive and reflect Indigenous culture and anti-racism awareness.

#91 Ensure International sporting events involve Indigenous peoples and respect territorial protocols.

Ideas to support these calls to action in your program:

Use a co-leadership approach.
Learn about the culture and the community you live in.
Speak to elders and learn about community protocol and traditions.
Find ways to include cultural aspects into your program.
Introduce ceremonies, songs, and dance as a way to celebrate or honour guests.
Learn about and honour protocols of host communities when you travel.
