Growing Together: Healing Communities through reconciliation and land
The National Healing Forests Initiative creates community-led spaces for healing and reconciliation, rooted in Indigenous knowledge and environmental stewardship. These forests offer natural sanctuaries where people can reflect on the past, foster understanding, and promote healing. Shaped by local communities in collaboration with Indigenous leaders, Healing Forests include walking paths, educational signage, and areas for ceremony, helping to connect people to nature and support the reconciliation process.
Healing Forests: Rekindling Hope and Reconciliation
This video is hosted on the YouTube channel of the David Suzuki Foundation and was produced by them to introduce the work of the National Healing Forests Initiative.
