WHAT YOU WILL DO:

As part of our commitment to Indigenous Education, and in response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada’s (TRC) Calls to Action # 7, 12, 22, 23, and 24, As indicated in the TRC Calls to Action, at a baseline level, it is essential that students develop an understanding of determinants that support Indigenous peoples’ health and wellness including culturally responsive strengths-based interventions and culturally safe care. This requires students to move beyond baseline awareness of historical/contemporary impacts of colonialism to a recognition of systems-based strengths and inadequacies and interventions that address health inequities experienced by Indigenous peoples. Specifically nursing school students have been required to take a course dealing with Aboriginal health issues including skill based training in intercultural competency, conflict resolution, human rights, and anti-racism. To meet this requirement the Humber Bachelor of Science - Nursing program offers a stand-alone course called Critical Conversations in Indigenous Determinants of Health in Canada. We are looking for an indigenous nurse to teach this course.
The successful candidate will have experience effectively weaving Indigenous ways of being, knowing and doing in the classroom, as well as demonstrated capacity to build and/or support Indigenous research, scholarly or artistic work, broad curriculum development, land-and-culture based pedagogic practice.
