Permanent Indigenous Spaces page now open!

Alongside the work of Alanah Jewell, a consultant for the City of Kitchener, the Permanent Indigenous Space team began having conversations in 2020 with local Indigenous leaders and organizations. The focus was to create a foundation for how permanent Indigenous spaces in Kitchener and Waterloo will look, feel and operate. The project team is also in the process of meeting and building a relationship with Six Nations of the Grand River and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.

Alanah and the team are continuing the conversations they started in 2020. Through this page and a series of in-person engagement sessions in July 2022, members of Indigenous communities in Waterloo Region will have an opportunity to share feedback, thoughts, concerns and ideas.
