As a member of the Indigenous Voices team at the Gwenna Moss Centre for Teaching and Learning at the University of Saskatchewan, Rose Roberts helps faculty and staff in the process of indigenization. She supports faculty in learning about the true history of Indigenous people in Saskatchewan while also valuing Indigenous and Western knowledge within our educational institutions. Rose Roberts reminds us of the saying, “before we can have reconciliation we have to know the truth.” The university is transitioning its courses to be inclusive of Indigenous paradigms and offer multiple ways of learning.
