The event will open with remarks from Dr. Kahente Horn-Miller, distinguished teaching scholar and Associate Vice-President, Indigenous Teaching, Learning, and Research at Carleton University. Dr. Horn-Miller will also join Trent leaders, faculty, and students on a panel discussion exploring how truth and reconciliation has been lived, practiced, and envisioned over the past decade at Trent and beyond. Panelists will share their experiences, reflect on opportunities and challenges in higher education, and speak to their personal commitments and goals for the next ten years.
