Ways of Being Across Nations: First Peoples Knowledge for Global Collaboration

This session brings together First Nations peoples and community stewards to explore how diverse ways of being can shape global collaboration. Drawing on anthropological approaches and Indigenous knowledge systems, participants will consider how relational ethics, place-based wisdom, and lived experience can inform international policy and social innovation. The session invites social innovators to reflect on their role as bridges between local knowledge, community priorities, and global governance, creating a shared space for learning and exchange.
