Like trees growing from the root, First Nations administrations must work together to build a solid foundation to move toward self-determination for their communities. In FNPSS’ first-in-person Conference since 2019, we invite delegates from all BC First Nation administrations, First Nations leadership, and those from First Nations service organizations and government to join us for a thought-provoking two days that will explore the theme of “Taking Root,” inspired by the cedar tree: the tree of life. As a symbol of strength, protection, resilience, and longevity, the cedar tree represents our innate human desire to establish deep roots and connections within ourselves, our communities, and the natural world. Through a series of keynote plenaries, workshops, and networking and partnership opportunities, we’ll delve into the many ways a strong foundation for collective growth in First Nations governance and administration can be cultivated. Join us as we focus on building and gaining the capacity to have strong grounded governance systems, and people to bring them to life.
