The New Enlightenment Project has begun participatory research into aboriginal land acknowledgements in Canada. The research will consist of a series of podcasts reviewing the practice in different communities across Canada. The first podcast in the series can be found here: https://youtu.be/xzmpTBLlVH8
Humanists can participate in this project by researching the use of land acknowledgements and the historical record of occupancy in their communities. Should you wish to participate please contact the New Enlightenment Project through this website.
