Tools for Social Innovation

_____

For social innovation to truly impact the world, it must embrace the voices of Indigenous communities. Indigenous perspectives are crucial in shaping a world, planet, and society that can coexist harmoniously. The following three courses are crafted to empower Indigenous individuals passionate about social innovation, and to equip other stakeholders in government, finance, and innovation with the tools to effectively support and collaborate with Indigenous innovators.

About this project

In partnership with Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC), the Congress of Aboriginal Peoples created three modules to share knowledge and recommend practices for promoting Indigenous Innovation across the broader Canadian ecosystem.

Colleen Gray is a Metis artist, and the founder of the Art for Aid Project.

This initiative supports Canadian First Nations, Inuit, and Metis art and cultural education programs. This is achieved by facilitating access to high-quality program materials, raising awareness, and conducting fundraising activities. With this support in place, it fosters a connection between Indigenous youth and their cultural heritage through art and knowledge.
