Indigenous Relations Consulting

Indigenous Relations is the process of improving your organization’s internal and external policies and systems so it can better relate to and work with Indigenous people, Indigenous businesses, Indigenous organizations, and Indigenous governments. Educating your team is a major first step in this process.
