Join the BCMA for a read-along of the useful resources!
The BCMA hosts sessions of the BCMA Book Club with staff members Lorenda and Leia. This series of online discussions aims to be part of cultural heritage professionals’ decolonization efforts and utilize existing resources to inform our work. Join us to hold yourself accountable for reading important resources to help your professional practice!
In past sessions, the BCMA Book Club has read;
Honouring the Truth and Reconciling for the Future: Summary of the Final Report of the TRC
Moved to Action: Activating UNDRIP in Museums, by the Canadian Museum Association
Spring/Summer 2024
In the Spring/Summer 2024 Session, Book Club will be reading three reports; the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007), The Government of Canada’s United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act Action Plan (2023), and the Government of B.C’s Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act Action Plan (2022) through eight sessions. For the ninth meeting, attendees are encouraged to read and share any action plans from their regional districts or municipalities to continue the learning down to a regional lens.
Session dates and readings are listed in the event calendar below.
