Sharing Circle 101 (protocols and etiquette)

July 16, 2025 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Free

As part of the implementation plan for the Akak’stiman Indigenous Strategy, one of United Way’s key organizational commitments is to identify and co-create learning activities to build the internal capacity of United Way staff and external capacity with our partners.

“When Berries and Medicines are Ripe” – Sharing Circle 101 will learn about what a sharing circle is; protocols as a participant; and etiquette throughout.

If there is time, we will invite participants to a Q&A component of this session.

Please arrive a few minutes before the start time, to get settled so the facilitator can get started on time.

The session will begin with a smudge and blessing.

In the spirit of our journey to promote reconciliation, we would like to honour the truth of our shared history and acknowledge Treaty 7 territory and the traditional lands of the Blackfoot Confederacy, that includes the Kainai, Siksika, and Piikani First Nations. We acknowledge the traditional lands of the Tsuut'ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda, including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations. We would also like to recognize the Métis people, and the Inuit people who have made their home here in Moh'kins'tsis, also known as Calgary.
